Everytime I try and do a search for members wish list books by letter, it comes up the wrong letter....believe me, I know how alphabetical listings read and this is totally incorrect every time. EX: I just tried to find books that started with 'T' in the garden/hort genre and ended up with all books starting with 'S'. (no I didn't hit the wrong letter...did it over and over again to make sure.  This has happened to me for weeks now and it is very frustrating as I would like to see if I have any books someone is searching for. TIA for any help on this.

Try scrolling down to the bottom of the page - maybe there aren't very many 'S' books and the 'T' books are on the same page - I've had that happen before - and I was very confused till I figured it out.  Hope that helps :)

I just tried this with "S" and got a long listing of book titles starting with the word "House."  Hardly an "S" title.  Then I tried various other letters, and all of them worked properly.  Sounds like a glitch.

Deborah, send some feedback to R&R about the problem.  They may not know it exists.  Use the "contact us" link at the bottom of any page and choose feedback from the options given.   I'm sorry you have been so frustrated - I would be too, but send on your information and hopefully the glitch can get fixed and you will feel better!  :)
