I adore indie novels. Even with errors (which I highlight on my kindle, or correct on my tablet,) they're awesome. But if it's something with advice or instructions.. it kills the message.

Fun novels I'm not supposed to take seriously, I'm just supposed to enjoy them.

In some ways I'm glad I have grammer and spelling issues myself, except then I might be extra critical on the ones I manage to avoid.

They don't really bother me most places. Even if I've paid for a book, (which is frequently a continuance on a free-first-book novel,) if it's just plain fun, it's not that big a deal.

I note it, but I find that slightly silly to do anyway. It doesn't really matter unless I actually get the chance to point it out to the author (which I don't, but hey, I'm prepared!)

But I was just reading a blog about running.. and I got to a "who's" that should have been a "whose".. and I just couldn't see the advice in the same way. Grammar shouldn't have that much of an impact..

but it does.

Yeah, I see your instead of you're....things like that.

That little "who’s wisdom and knowledge"... just broke the flow and the feeling of knowledge.

It's not like somebody needs to know grammar to know about running.. but I just can't keep the meaning or the confidence.

I have the same problem, have always been hyper-sensitive to spelling and syntax errors. Sadly the career of proofreader was discontinued, I was born for it

Sadly, it was a mistake to get rid of it.

I mark them, too. I keep wondering whether every reader does something similar and no one reports it for changes....

I can't imagine everybody does it.. and it doesn't even really bother me in fluff books.

I don't even mark it when its my housemate's book, but I might take note in that case just so when he goes and edits it, I can add it to the 'don't forget this.'
