But saving up my Audible credits and then spending those saved credits? That I'm good with.
It's a subscription. Fair enough.

Guys I think the idea behind ebooks purchase is to read them, enjoy them and get inspired by ideas, experiences and the beauty authors have to offer. Also a great fiction story that touches my soul is something I look forward in every buying. I think authors who offer such a wonderful journey and insight are not many and it is their books I am seeking out. Could any of you make any such suggestion?

I think you might have better luck in the Reading Recommendations forum. Just start a new thread there.

This thread is for people who have already bought lots of wonderful ebooks, and need help to stop buying more ebooks while they read the ones they have.

Since the last time I posted, I haven't bought a single ebook! (Even though I do have an awful lot of credits at BooksOnBoard which I should probably use soon.)

Can't quite say the same for paper books, but still. No new books added to my ereader (with the exception of the two elibrary books).

I wish you hadn't posted that. I was trying to wait for the library to get it in, but it is below my DO NOT BUY limit, so now I am tempted.

Ebook buying, not ebook reader buying. You're still welcome here.

This thread is a perfect thread for me. I'm definitely addicted, I can't help myself! Amazon especially gets me, with books for $.99, $1.99, $2.99...I'm doomed! lol Currently I have over 400 ebooks on my reader, plus about 150 paper books, all waiting to be read. I can't read that fast!! What to do?!?!?

I figure the Paperwhite will be good for me -- it has less memory, so I won't be able to put as many books on it. Sure. Right. That's persuasive, isn't it?

Sigh. I did break down and buy a book I probably should have waited on. The new Laurie King came out on my birthday, and I just couldn't resist.
