I would be totally ok with the book excerpts in the back of the book - this is basicly standard in romances - but I have a lot of concern about book excerpts, too.

Dear Author had an article about "bloated ebook files" and how publishers were placing more ads for other books inside of newly published ebooks than actual content.
Yeah, the stuff you've linked to is ridiculous. I've also had one where the last 15% was promotional material, and that felt like a gyp.

I think these publishers are forgetting that ads need to be short, targeted, and grabbing. The idea is not to try and create your own home shopping network for books.
