If it's bad, and particularly if it's a book I know I will want to read aagain, then I will go in and fix it. But it takes me so long to read it then, and sometimes it feel like work.
So... sometimes I cringe inwardly and read through. I did get to help an author out with proofing her book once, though-- the publisher failed to provide her with galleys before publishing the paperback, and so she got a handful of fans to go through and nitpick the hell out of the final product with her.
