When using the BACK button, I've found that sometimes it doesn't do anything, so I click it a bunch and finally it throws me back a few sections--but it's always in the correct plotline. Did you say this 'sticky back button' thing happens in other books as well? That one has always confused me, as to why it might get stuck.

I hope you're still able to enjoy the book. Tell me any other thoughts/problems you have.
Sorry, it's been a little while since I re-read threads I've already submitted to.

I don't think the problems with the "back" button ending up at a random page have occurred with anything other than the CYOA book. In a regular book if I hit 'back' too many times it's easier to correct. I don't think the CYOA pages are totally random, either. I've never hit 'back' and ended up further along in the book. I think it can lose track of the story path.

I've been really overworked lately but I'm about to start on 2 months of 3-day weeks (yay) to burn through my vacation time before the end of the year. I was planning to go back to the book after I caught up on some sleep and felt leisurely enough that I wouldn't overclick .

I'll try to remember to come back and let you know how it goes.
