 ## Release History
 
+- 1.1.1: Fixed `io.open` bug; added some `try/except` to catch more errors; re-enabled `timeout_time`; added `last_word` export so it's easy to see which words are new and which are old. Published in [Releases](https://github.com/vardecab/kindle-words/releases).
 - 1.1: Quite a big re-write: it now works properly with `My Clippings.txt` file from Kindle - all bugs are fixed. Initial run takes ~ 10 minutes to complete (depending on the size of your file) but afterwards it's usually < 1 minute because data from previous run is stored locally for comparison - only new words are being translated to save time and improve speed.
 - 1.0.0: Using new API - [deep-translator](https://github.com/nidhaloff/deep-translator). 
 - 0.12.5: Bug in the API discovered.
