Marsha Woerner reviewed The Good Lawyer by Thomas Benigno
Review of 'The Good Lawyer' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
My experience with Kindle books has generally been that the punctuation and capitalization etc. has been pathetic, but this was worse than usual. If I am going to spend MY money on a book, I would like to add least expect that there is been some effort put into the creation of same!

Where it asks for the format, it reads that it's an e-book. I've tried to change it to Kindle, but even though I have added, more than once I might add, the edition, it still does not seem to recognize that it exists. Sigh.
