I've definitely noticed a somewhat out of order of book processing. I've had since the last Marissa's list, I believe 9 books in the admin queue and none of them have been approved. I'm thinking that Hardy Boys aren't *that* important, but if books are being approved within 48 hours of submission and mine were submitted a few weeks ago and have had plenty of time in the admin queue, what happened to them? I've never had a book disappear on me, so I'm quite sure they're just a ways down in the stack. I've got backgup copies of everything so shall resubmit if they drop off Marissa's list without appearing on the site.
