New books are simply a bit stiff, and the pages stay in the semi-closed configuration initially. You just need to stretch it a bit by bending the book back and forth when open on the desired page, and bang on the middle to make it conform to the new shape.

Yeah why do those pages stay flopped up like that. If they don’t lay flat I get distracted

Brand new books, man. That’s why I only buy used.
