Definitely better than one.
As readers make their way through OAaE, I begin to realize the advantage of having so many eyes on the text aside from the feedback I receive. I've been buried so deep in this manuscript for so long that even the faintest mistakes elude me. It's almost as if I'm immune to typos, no matter how many times I go over the piece, because my mind knows how it is supposed to read and so my eyes skip over errors as easily as they overlook imperfections in the mirror. Thankfully I have enough people streaming me corrections to be made, both large and small, which I will "patch" in once more people have reached the end of the novel.

That is cool. I saw one the other day and forgot to mark it so I will go back and reread to find it again. :) I totally understand about working with a piece of your work and becoming immune to the mistakes you make from the thousands of times your eyes read over it. Good job though!
