I have 22 hours.

i havent gotten any actually lol.



i think i'd break my habit if i came across a book that was truly a nightmare to read due to a massive amount of misspellings or had a grammar structure from bizarro world. my outrage at being ripped off would force me to.

there have been books where there were a couple misspelled words or formatting didn't properly separate the words. i just couldn't see myself knocking off a full point for minor errors.

maybe i've just been very lucky in that i haven't bought anything that was an absolute mess, i make a point of checking samples every time even if it's an established author i know. if it reads like a 1st grader wrote it, i just don't buy it.
