I bought the new Terry Pratchett novel the other day and while the story is as brilliant as you would expect, the actual file itself seems to be acting a bit weird.

Most of the time it seems to be okay, but once in a while it seems to decide its going to need to do the 505 formatting hourglass each time you goto the next page, has anyone seen other files do this before and if so is there a way to avoid this as its a bit annoying.

I think the problem is probably related to the way they have implemented the footnotes in the book as they are a link to another page at the back of the book, but am not completely sure.
