I’m sure most of you are already aware of this (it’s been all over the internet, happily,) but just in case you spent the long week-end holidaying on Pluto or something of the sort…

Which effectively renders the books sort-of invisible. There have been a variety of explanations for this odd occurrence offered, most recently a “glitch” in the system. There is a good piece on the situation at The Guardian.

Have a look and then why not let Amazon know what you think…
