Op is overblown, but the layout of the spells is indeed terrible. Picking a spell to learn means flipping through an 80-page chapter for like 15 minutes minimum. I get the page count limitations but it's honestly just dumb that they haven't put official class-specific quick-reference PDFs on the WOTC site yet. (I'm thinking like the feat quick-reference in the 4e PHB, with one-line descriptions of each spell along with stuff like school).
Also, negative extra credit for not giving a dang list of eldritch knight and arcane trickster spells, AND not including schools on the wizard spell list, so I have to look up the entire huge wizard spell list to see which spells are evocation and abjuration (or whatever).
