Medium Raw: A Bloody Valentine to the World of Food and the People Who Cook by Anthony Bourdain
3.0

I feel like my ebook copy (through the Nook store @ Barnes & Noble) had a slight rearranging of chapters, though- read through what seemed like the end, copyright, etc. with 20 pages to go... then the segment where he describes a clandestine dinner with ortolans, which some reviews note as the opening. Following that was a chapter on where the rogue's gallery of KC is now. Did the nook copy for anyone else have these two displace chapters?
edit: Took a peek using Amazon's preview, and it looks like displacing "The Sitdown" (prologue) from the beginning to the second to last essay is the only difference. Still, am curious if this discrepancy will show up if I open it in other nook apps, or if that was just on my phone...
