Hi Everyone, I need to vent as well as get some help. I downloaded a Free Friday book in September called Gap Creek by Robert Morgan and finally got around to reading it but the book stops in the middle of page 227. I would really like to finish this book. I see on the website after searching for it that it has approx. 330 pages.
I tried the archive / unarchived trick but that didn't work. I tried downloading the read on your PC app to see if the book opened up better that way. No go. I think I have a bad download.
Also, here comes the vent part, I spend 45 minutes on chat and now I'm worse off than when I started. John Martin suggested I u-nregister and re-register but when asked if it would change anything on my Nook he neglected to tell me that all the shelves I had so carefully set up would be wiped out. I have 29 pages of books to re-shelve now. I think we all know that it is a little cumbersome to go back and re-add that many books. Any advice on the quickest way to do this? Can I do it online or using my PC?
Thanks in advance for your help. I have a Nook first edition purchased about a year ago.
Molly

Page numbers on the web site are for the printed book. They don't match page numbers in the e-book. The page numbering system used by the Adobe software in NOOK typically fits a lot more on a "page" than a printed book does. 227 e-book pages for 330 printed book pages is reasonable. For example, Footsteps in the Dark is 232 e-book pages and 352 printed pages.
My guess is that you've got the entire e-book. The last words in the book are, "We started walking again."
And sorry, there's no way to speed up the re-shelving process. You'll just have to plod through it.
