One book my spouse just picked up had (in the order they appeared), a review that took about 15 lines, a 6 line blurb for the book, a bunch of reviews mostly for other books by the same author that took up 340 lines and the complete contents of the prologue and chapter 1 taking about 500 lines. I ended up deleting all but the blurb. Inside the ebook, the cover image, author photo and a couple of other images were all sized at 2250 x 3000. Shrinking them down to more reasonable sizes knocked the book from 14.6MB to 1.2MB.
