I've downloaded a few books that were self-promoted and/or self-published, but by the time I get around to reading them I've long since forgotten where I obtained the book. It would be very helpful if the author put in a page near the beginning of the book (in case I don't like the book and don't make it to the end) and near the end of the book (to remind me when I finish it) WHERE to go to leave a review.
