 problems with book January 4, 2009

I am reading this on my Kindle and am finding words spelled incorrectly and other errors, such as i not capitalized.
Is this a book problem or a Kindle problem?

This book is extremely helpful, it helped me open my eyes and see my faults and it is helping my relationship. It is also helping me become a better person and feel better about myself. I have not finished the book and already see positive changes. Highly recommend!

As most people might already know, this book is based upon the Christian movie "Fireproof", which is about a man who saves his marriage by completing a character-testing, 40-day list of "dares" suggested to him by his father. Like the movie, the book of course is Christian based as well.
I loved the movie and the book is more of the same. However I looked at both of them from the perspective of a person happily married for over 15 years. I can tell you that while I don't practice all the dares in the book, my spouse and I are good about doing many of them- and of course there's always room for improvement. From my personal experience, I feel like concentrating on the kinds of ideas presented in the book have been absolutely key to making our marriage last.
Now the book itself also consists of a 40-day list of dares. For each day, there's about a page and a half or so of advice, followed by a specific dare and some space for you to write down your personal reflections. Dares range from things such as practicing patience to writing out a renewal of your vows. The guys will probably particularly like Day 32!
As you can tell, I highly recommend going to see the movie and reading the book. In a society that places a high value on looks and money, while sporting a 50% divorce rate, its nice to see more movies and books coming out that get people more focused on the right values in life. Even if you don't do anything more than just glance through the book, you're going to be given something to think about. Other self-help books I enjoyed include Finding Happiness in a Frustrating World.
Happy Marriage Kit December 22, 2008
Follow the easy steps in the "Love Dare" and build a meaningful and more loving relationship with your partner in life. Like a great travel guide to great places, this guide will take you to new experiences.

I am not completely finished with the book, but it is challenging to say the least and hope I can fulfill all its requirements in being a good wife, etc.
