My TBR list became very large (not to mention all the pbooks from family). Due to this, I became much more selective and now only purchase or download if I really find it interesting (and have checked a sample of their writing first).

I'm willing to give self-published authors a try if the price is under $4. I have to really think about it (an usually don't) if the price is higher. My favorite place to purchase is smashwords.

I will quickly purchase other books by an author I liked or if someone on MR (that has the same taste as me or I respect their opinion) recommends it.
