Which I'm more willing to forgive at this stage of the e-book game because it falls within a box that's specially positioned. What bothers me more is the excess inter-word spacing on page 2 and lack of hyphenation to bring an even "color" to the lines. Other than that, on my laptop I, too, prefer emulating a physical book with a two-page spread. As Hadrien notes, the justification on page 1 is just botched.
