How many books are there anyway that you have to read right now? It's not as if you'ld be reduced to reading cereal boxes or third rate novels in the meanwhile. I always have way more books that I want to read than I have time to read them. My To-Be-Read list (and those are the ones I already bought) is always around a hundred or more. Lots more that I haven't bought yet onmy wish list. With all these books competing for my time and money why should I even want to pay premium prices to buy just one? I'll like it just as well a year or two from now at a quarter of the price, unless the reviews are so bad I decide it isn't worth buying at all (another benefit of waiting, it saves you from wasting your money on dud books).
