Thanks John, that's great ... unlike my proofreading abilities.
I've fixed the errors and/or mildly tweaked the text, and I'm very pleased that my firstborn novel is perfect again (... right until someone spots a few more typos).
"Peter rotated the screen towards her, and she grudgingly admitted that perhaps her proofreading talents weren’t as strong as she had supposed."
I knew that would come back to haunt me!

Hi John,
Glad you enjoyed it, and I'm thrilled that you took the time to review the book on Goodreads. Getting the word out is so important. If you could take a moment to add your review to Amazon, that would be really helfpul too.
By the time I'd written the book and then edited it over and over again (my writing style is wildly and inefficiently iterative), I couldn't see the errors, so I'm not surprised if a few typos have seeped through into the published version. It'd be great if you could send me any issues you spotted, either here or to the email contact listed at the back of the book.
Thanks for your review and you help!
