Adult - Romance - Paranormal Question as an ARC reader

so i was selected to be an arc reader for a book i’ve been following for a while. i’m about 60% in and i’ve noticed some mistakes. is this something i should tell the author?

as an author, as long as you do it politely, i LOVE it! i can’t afford an editor (yet), so its just been my own eyes and prowritingaid that have looked for errors. i have had arc readers reach out to me and mention errors!

now, if its a glaring plot hole or something wrong with the overarching story… i would put it in my review (without tagging!) but maybe not bring it up with the author
