Interesting, but..

Ok. I had written a review pointing out a book loop. (page 81 would then jump back to 36) but I reloaded the apple book reader and voila’ Now it works. Another book I read has pretty bad issues too, but now I see that I should have stuck with kindle versions because the apple books app just isn’t very good. So. Go you! Interesting and well written book, now that I can actually read it.
