I understand that. I just can't force myself to take the time to figure out how to edit books to fit my perfect reading experience. And I'm not sure what that even is. Sometimes I'm fine with wide margins, other times I have to have huge margins, etc.

The fiddling happens once when I start reading and is something I can do rather quickly and then not think about it.

My problem is introductions and forewords. For whatever reason I feel forced to read them and fear missing important information if I don't. When I finally make my way through, I'm so exhausted that I can't be bothered with the actual book. It can then take weeks before I get started on it. Luckily, other books exist to keep me entertained during that period.
