I have no idea what's causing this bug or how to stop it from happening BUT i can run a regular cleanup procedure which should prevent anyone from seeing its effects.

I am baffled by an author deliberately giving away free versions of the ebook on their website but also selling the epubs on store sites - WITH DRM.
like, i KNOW that store does not require DRM, I sometimes shop there. wtf?
My ebook purchase algorithms are now confused. 😵💫
