I am enjoying this book. Love the story, but the production value is so low. Spellcheck generated errors abound and annoy. I know, what should one expect for $.99? If a book deserves to be published, it deserves to be published well! I like the story telling well enough to persevere but I will think twice before I get another $.99 digital book. Argh!

Okay, I'm still reading, but I think I'm going to write her note about all the errors. I've started underlining them. It helps decrease my frustration. In a way, I now feel like I'm grading someone's work from a college level creative writing class.

Okay, I take it all back! LOL. The error I referred to earlier is in the second sentence.

I'm probably too picky given that this is a $.99 book but there's a verb/noun disagreement in the very FIRST SENTENCE. I am so annoyed at how poorly some books are (not) edited when published only digitally. I just finished Anne Tibberts's The Beast Call and while I enjoyed it, by the end I couldn't wait to be done because of all the editing gaffs. I will force myself to continue Farro. Ugh!
