Slow down before you buy that e-book reader. If e-book readers are touted as a cheaper way to read books, then riddle me this:
I can get Long for This World for $9.50 in paperback or $15 for my Kindle. What a deal! In fact, add just $2.40 to the Kindle price and I could have it in hardback sitting on my shelf.
I can get The Fever for $10.50 in paperback or $13 for my Kindle. Oops. Add $2.70 to the Kindle price and I could have it in hardback.
I can get Bernard Cornwell’s latest installment of his Saxon Chronicles, The Burning Land, for $8.65 in paperback or $10 for my Kindle.
At these prices, my Kindle gizmo will pay for itself in book purchases in no time. In. No. Time.
