That's when I use Sigil for to make the books more readable by modifying the formatting and cleaning up egregious errors. Takes about 10-15 minutes.

I keep meaning to go through and clean out the books that I've read and will never read again. Not just the ones that to quote Dorothy Parker/Sid Ziff/etc.: “It is not a book to be lightly thrown aside. It should be thrown with great force.” but all those books that, IMO, do not offer anything to be gained by re-reading.
