Bought A Book - Still Says Sample

Hi all,

I had a couple samples of books I wanted to read so of course on the bottom of the book it says 'sample'. I bought the books but it still says 'sample' underneath. They are both part of a series (different series for each book). I like to see the percentage of completion under the book but now I cannot because it says sample. I tried to remove the download and download again, restart my phone... Anyone have any suggestions?

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 13

How do I stop Books from downloading a sample when I hit want to read? There was a setting that asked if I want to download a sample of the books I select for want to read. How do I turn this off now so it only adds the book to my collection without a sample?

Purchased a book on Apple Books but only received the sample Hello, I read a sample on Apple Books, and decided to purchase the book for $9.99. After the purchase went through, I opened the book, only to see that there are only the first 5 pages (the sample). I’ve purchased books before and haven’t had this issue. Any help on how to get the entire book would be appreciated. Thanks!
