Oddly enough the author snapped out of it and the last 2/3rds of the book were much smoother.
Even more oddly, the very next idie book I tried had the problem, the opening sections needed way more copy editing and smoothed out at about the same place. If I were going to neglect part of my own book (if I had one I mean) it wouldn't be the opening.

I edited Life...With No Breaks a good three times right through with a final polish on top and I've no doubt I missed a few things here and there...
