Thank you ! What I try to express is that some book pages are stiff and difficult to be turned.– SuperuserOct 29, 2015 at 8:27

2Apart from that, you can try; Flip through the pages and go through the leaves of the book– UsernewOct 29, 2015 at 8:31

2Yes, use turn. But we turn "[from page X] to page Y" or we can "turn the page". We don't *"turn the book" :)– Araucaria - Not here any more.Oct 29, 2015 at 8:52
