Dunno. This isn't a typo but a mistake by someone who doesn't even know the meaning of the words he uses. It would have taken a very good book indeed for me to keep on going after that. Since it was a bit meh anyway, I just dropped it.

And of course I am not dismissing all self-published books; there are just so many books on my TBR pile, and the self-pubbed stuff has been moved so far back now that I will probably never get to any of it.
