Hello there,

I am trying to read a book using get_book and get following error message:

Python 2.7.13 (default, Aug 22 2017, 13:19:02)

>>> import pyexcel

    self._file_stream.seek(0)
AttributeError: addinfourl instance has no attribute 'seek'

If the line "self._file_stream.seek(0)" is removed, then it works.

Would someone please take a look at it?

Best regards,
