Oh dear I have fallen off the wagon! I bought an ebook today, but it's ok because it's I need the book for bookclub and the ebook was cheaper that the pbook. I don't think I've fallen far.

It's when one becomes five becomes fifty that the problems start.

Here, have a hand back up onto the wagon.

pbooks have their own way of regulating purchases. The physical space needed to store them is a big factor.

Not that I buy any pbooks any more.

i don't really buy pbooks anymore either, but there's a credit card promo for a bookstore here and my sister can redeem a $6 or so gift certificate, which is just enough for one of the books that i want whose kindle edition is more expensive xP

plus the cover is gorgeous

Nah. This concept does not do for me.
My mother and mother-in-law I don't have too much trouble with, my father and stepmother on the other hand...

Thankfully, I never really liked buying pbooks by mail (or via the internet), and I really try to stay away from town where there are bookshops...
