I am definitely a bit of a sucker for the Kindle sales as I will readily buy a load of books if they sound like the sort of thing I would read at some point even if I probably still have some bought in a similar fashion in the same sale last year.
However, I do not actually think it is a bad thing as I have discovered via such sales a number of authors that I would have completely overlooked at full-price and have since gone on and bought the rest of a number of different series given that amazon usually offer book 1's in their sales to lure people in.
If I am only paying 99p or so per book then I would only really need about 1 in 5 to be good and I would be no worse off financially than if I stuck to dearer books from authors I already knew and I would say I am far better at spotting books I would like than that so combined with the discovering new authors I think I have to say the following:
My name is Colin and I am glad that I am an ebook addict!
