Yikes. I need the page proofs exactly because the format looks like the book. Otherwise I would not catch things.
Sadly, me too. I really feel like I miss a lot more, this way. And yes, I know I should have caught things all over the place in the many previous iterations -- but my subconscious frequently just sees what it "knows" is there right up until it looks like... a book.
On the other hand, this doesn't excuse the little mistakes I fail completely to catch anyway. Eye color being one.
