I have always done it but nightmagic is being held up because of junk characters and this part of it is my and my alone but the author and the title need to be put on the title page although sometimes it is just the author and the publisher like in this one it was all three for a change.

Sometimes, I find work in there I didn't know about. Also, I enjoy reading the opinions of reviewers - and especially other authors in the same field. I do not follow anything anyone says blindly - no pun intended - but if an author I really like has glowing words of praise for a book I am thinking of reading, it can affect my judgment when it comes to deciding whether to start it. There are a lot of books out there and only so many hours in which to read them. Positive reviews by people I know and respect can have an influence on my decisions. I know it can take some effort some times to get those preliminary pages into good shape, and I know that sometimes it may just be impossible; but I am one reader who appreciates it greatly and - and as a submitter and validator myself - I do not take that effort for granted.

We know that what ever the review is it will be good for that book and can we just put in the title page and the copyright page of course? I forgot to put the title and author on night and there are a few junk characters on the first page and fourth page. I set kurzweil or should I say kurzweil sets it's self and if the print is bold at the beginning where the reviews are it's a mess.
