I've wondered for ages why there's a Table of Contents page. At first I thought it was because I could choose which chapter I wanted but no! - it has no functionality, it's just a waste of time. I like the covers (colour please! - after all ebook readers are evolving, I first see it on my PC anyway and I might get a colour reader one day) and I don't mind the acknowledgements but the rest of it could easily go at the back or not be there at all. I totally agree about the typos and line breaks. Very often ebook buyers are paying a higher price and we seem to be getting an inferior product - why do we get treated so poorly? Oh definitely Liza!
