Join Jason Pettus, executive director of the Chicago Center for Literature and Photography (cclapcenter.com), as he takes an informed yet irreverent look at the subject of "literary classics," reading for the first time a hundred such books then penning funny, insightful guides to whether or not they deserve the label. Already a cult hit online, this is the first bound collection of these essays (this first volume collecting up the first 33 in the series), covering authors from the ancient Greeks to postmodernist hipsters and everyone in between; and as released under CCLaP's well-known "pay what you want" system, it even makes the book technically free if so desired. Stop bluffing your way through cocktail parties! Pick up volume one of the CCLaP 100 and see for yourself what truly constitutes a classic in our contemporary times.

Take a look at most books and you'll see that they have page breaks.
Just use sections instead of pasting the whole book into a text element and it'll work fine (and you'll also get a TOC).

Yeah, that's unfortunately the problem with the book-making process here at Feedbooks, is that I've found it nearly impossible to get the page-break formatting right. (Why is it so hard to find software to make decent EPUB books, when the format itself is becoming so popular?) If you download the PDF versions over at this book's main online headquarters (cclapcenter.com/100book), you'll find the sections to be much clearer like you mention here.
