Here's a photo of the newly formatted ToL, all the scene breaks are now forced to show (unlike the pbook version where they're subjective).
Again, I was going to close up the inter paragraph spacing but Elita made the comment that on the Kindle she found it much easier/faster to read with the spacing in there.

I just saw the screen shot and there are a few issues with it. The first issue is that the section break marker is not centered between the two sections. Next is the first paragraph after the section break is indented. When it's not indented, that says, new section. When it's indented, if you happen to miss the section break, you can still know you've hit a new section easily enough. Then we have paragraph spaces that take the reader away from the story and into the format of the book. Sorry, but paragraph spaces do interfere with the book. They cause you to look at the blank space instead of moving on to the next paragraph. The indents are too large. They look silly. A lot of eBooks use 5% and that's just way too big. And lastly, in the second paragraph, two of the lines are not properly justified making it easy to drop out of the story and focus on the formatting.
Other then those issues, it's fine.
