New Google Books only shows few lines at a time

With full-text books there’s only a narrow window of maybe 5 lines in view so you have to keep scrolling, very irritating to me. I’ll have to call same book up in the old site to see whole pages. What’s this about? Is there a button to see full pages?

 

Computer, tablet, and/or mobile? I'm not seeing anything like that looking at a free novel-type book.

 

IPAD. When I first arrive at a book zi get the full page, but when zi come back to it after going elsewhere, zi only get the narrow- slit fire, which is what I have now here…https://books.google.com/books?id=l...=2ahUKEwjr68DzhuT3AhXBTd8KHf58DvMQ6AF6BAgMEAM

 

Opens in the old Google Books.

I'm looking at it on a desktop, and it appears there's a search criteria entered into the search entry box, hence the partitioned search results (narrow panels). However, it displays in full pages upon initial click of the URL, but if I hit the back button, it goes to the search view.

Do you see see a "Clear search" anywhere?

 

Try Hathi Trust. I use the site to peruse antiquarian books before I buy.

I just tried on my iPad. There is a Close Search in the upper right. If you tap that, it should display full pages.

 

Or.....how about trying one of those paper page-y things?
