Review: Unusable due to the number of errors

There are so many errors in this cookbook that I don't think you should even trust recipes that don't look as if they have errors. Without cooking every recipe and tasting it, there's no way to trust ingredient amounts and cooking times. In addition to the errors, the ebook formatting has cut the numbers off the numbered lists of instructions. I flipped back through this quickly to note some of the errors I saw. Errors range from:1) not telling you how long to cook a recipe,2) asking you to put a recipe in a 4 oz. or a 4-6 oz. slow cooker, etc., (should be quarts),3) not telling you what to coat a slow cooker with (just coat it),4) asking you to cook something for 8 hours that would cook in just a couple of hours,5) asking you to cook something for "fours,"6) asking you to cook a recipe on medium-low (well, I've never had a slow cooker with this setting, maybe some do),7) calling for butter (not true paleo; should require ghee),8) asking you to add remaining "ingress" - yes, I can guess the author meant ingredients, but I shouldn't have to,9) and the list goes on beyond any reasonable number of errors.Plus the recipes are not standardized for one size of slow cooker; recipes requirements range from 2-6 quart slow cookers (ignoring the "oz." error). Has the author read these recipes? (Or even tested them?) If an author can't bother to read through their own ebook, perhaps they should have a friend or editor glance through it. This book has so many more errors, it's not worth paging through to find them.
