It's more bizarre than that. It's the last word of the paragraph if it continues from the previous screen. And if the paragraph finishes with two punctuation characters, the word can be selected, but not that last character. And yes, not a big problem, but one I can't "unsee" once I discovered it.

And something I just noticed, if I start a selection earlier in the paragraph to include that last word, the highlight disappears when I lift my finger, but the menu pops up. I can save the highlight and see it in the annotations list, but it isn't highlighted in the text. If I change the font size so that the paragraph doesn't go over the screen, the highlight appears.
