Like Red Penguin I too got the QI's 'The Book of General Ignorance'....gosh its slow !!!!
Really annoying for that long 5 second wait for the next chapter to load. Have now gotten into a rhythm of chatting with Hubby between chapters as they load LOL

I have bought a few epubs from Waterstones and they all load really fast and the page turning in constantly quick, this one though is a nightmare.
Why did the publishers make it this way when it can obviously be done more smoothly/quickly? I bought Jeremy Clarksons book which is similar in format and it loads really nicely and speedily, no long waits between chapters at all.
