I hate some publishers

So I was so excited when I found out that Blue Destiny, the first book of my trilogy was going to get published. I talked with them and they told me, "We'll edit the whole thing." That's exactly what they said. Well recently I got my copy of Blue Destiny. I absolutely love the cover design. I thought they did a fantastic job. But what was the one thing they didn't do so well? What was the one thing they really didn't do at all? They didn't edit it that well. I've never been so angry. As I write, as many people do, we forget commas and sometimes we don't do everything right. that's why publishers are supposed to edit it. And now when I read it, I'm like, "There should be a comma there." And I found two name swaps. Sure they are my fault and I didn't catch them when I went over it. But shouldn't they catch it. So now I fear more than anything people won't like it or read it because of that. I hope that I am wrong. I guess I have to say that no matter what, the story is the same. The story is told exactly the way I want it.
