I have found one thing that will crash the book reader and send you back to the home page. Steps to reproduce the problem...

1. Highlight a word (other than the first word of a line).
2. Drag the end-of-highlight marker down to the next line.
3. Drag the end-of-highlight marker left (while staying on the same line) to a position to the left of the start-of-highlight marker (which is on the previous line).
4. Drag the end-of-highlight marker up to the same line as the start-of-highlight marker.

This will crash the book reader and dump you back to the home page every time. It doesn't remember where you were in the book from that particular session of reading either. (On a positive side, it doesn't crash/freeze the whole device.)

Note, if you are highlighting with your finger instead of the stylus and your highlight begins on one line and ends on the next, but to the left of where the start marker is, it's quite easy to accidentally do this.
