Depends on the book and the author.
I sent an author an email pointing out four errors I found in a 100,000 word novel. I liked the book so much that I expect to re-read it more often, so I marked up the mistakes I noticed on my second read to correct them for myself. Since I'd marked them already, and the author was self-published and someone I follow on Twitter, I asked the author if they'd like a list of those few mistakes to fix them, and they said yes, so there.
Books really full of mistakes I might stop reading because of those, and even if I read them to the end, making a list would be too much work.
