As a follow up to the highlighting bug I've run into, I've found a workaround. If I select the entire one sentence paragraph, I can't highlight it. However, if I select everything but the last period, then I can highlight it. The exception to this is if the initial highlight action stopped short of the final period. Then shifting the selection to include the final period will allow me to highlight that one sentence paragraph. Isn't that strange? It seems to be a bug related to the less than accurate selection process.

Update: it's possible this is just a general bug in the highlighting process that I've noticed with these one sentence paragraphs. There are other instances where I cannot highlight. The control handles are buggy, cumbersome things. The whole highlighting processes is clumsy compared to the kobo iOS app which I have years of experience with. It's also clumsy compared to my Kindle, though that, too, is more difficult than highlighting with an iOS app. Regardless, it is the one sentence paragraphs of any length that are giving me trouble.
