This took longer to write than it actually takes to do  .

That is interesting, thank you for sharing. The interesting part is the checking of layout. How many books (rough%) do you think need adjusting for margin etc.? Or are you very picky about a certain look when reading?
update: I am still disappointed about
Hunger Games. That line spacing is absolute crap. It is roughly 1.5 or 2 line spacing at Kindles lowest setting. To be honest though, I looked into a print book the other day and it is there as well. WTH were they thinking? So you can make notes inside the text?
