I am sorry, but I am not really following.
"press ctrl+enter two times" = naturally creates two blank pages, which 
I do not want to have.

AND .. the biggest problem:
I CAN NOT choose the page style. originally it was "default" for 
individual pages.
Now I created, following your advice a new one (called firstP" and get 
that style for the ENTIRE book.
Trying to select pages and apply a page style (ANY) does not work.
And even though I get a "page 1" after the manual break, the three pages 
before that are still numbered 1-3.

So far everything is either ALL or NONE. No selection possible.
Where am I missing what?
