As others have said, it should be fixed with by setting widows and orphans in CSS. But, how much is "that extra bit of space"? As well as the widows/orphans, there is always a gap depending on how the number of lines work out. When there seem to be a bit extra space, I open the bottom menu and check how much space there is above the line. Usually there is less than a lines worth, and I can see that there are elements on the page that take up more than a line of body text. The chapter heading is an example of this. The way I format chapter headings when I "fix" a book is probably a cause of this. The style I use for headings has a top margin so that the heading isn't covered by the top bar when it is opened.
