Highlights issue with one specific book

$

All my ebooks are EPUB. I noticed today that trying to create highlights in one book - and only this one book, as far as I can tell (I tested a handful of others and highlights worked normally with all of them) - keeps going wrong. I don't even know how to describe it, so there are pictures under a spoiler cut.

Spoiler:


Trying to highlight one word = highlights (bits of?) the whole line.



Trying to highlight multiple lines.



This is an EPUB I received through Netgalley (the website publishers use to share digital advanced reader copies of books to reviewers) so it seems unlikely it would be corrupted.

I tried deleting it from my Kobo and re-adding it; that didn't help. Then I made a duplicate copy in Calibre, ran an EPUB to EPUB conversion, and put that on the Kobo; no change. I didn't spot anything strange in the CSS, but I don't know what I'm looking for; I don't know if CSS could cause anything like this.

Obviously I can read without highlighting, but I'd still like to know what this is and how to fix it. My highlights are important to me!
