I hate the continual confusion of "Loose" and "Lose", I actually saw it in a book the other day, it changed how I viewed the book completely.

One book my wife was recently reading confused rein, rain and reign. It almost seemed as if a random number generator was used to select which one would be used (historical romance set in Victorian London so lots of horses, weather and royalty). Did you know Queen Victoria had the longest rein? Well, until Elizabeth II passed her rain. Not to mention confusing toxophilite with a lover of poisons. Bonus point for those who don't need to consult Google to answer what is a toxophilite...
