Default Mirrored Margins with Multiple Sections

I am editing a multi-section book with mirrored margins.

I wish to end section 1 at the end of a left-hand page, then continue
straight on to section 2 at the beginning of the next (right-hand) page.

The problem is that Word starts section 2 as a left-hand page.

This gives me two left-hand pages in a row.

How can I force Word to start section 2 as a right-hand page?

Insert an Odd Page section break.

At the end of a section, you need to insert, Section Break, Next Odd Page.
This will force Word to start the next section on the Odd page (right-hand
page), which is the convention for a book. If you just insert a Section
Break, it will start on either odd or even depending if the previous section
finished odd or even.
