Is there a way to make new books open at the cover instead of the first page of text? I am kind of surprised publishers allow this as I, for one, love the feeling I get when I start a new book looking at the cover first and thinking of all the wonderful adventures I am going to find inside. Then there's the enjoyment of flipping through the Other Books By This Author, the title pages, and the Table of Contents. Opening instead at the first page of text and having to page back to the cover ruins some of the magic for me.

Not that big a deal but one more annoying thing some suit in some office decided I should prefer.
