I read alot of light novels, not really romance, but cozy mysteries, southern novels, Charlaine Harris, Mary Kay Andrews, Dorothea Benton Frank etc and when an e-book that I want is 12.99 to 14.99 and hasn't come down in price in months. I go on the wait list at my local library or buy it in paper. Either way, I hope I'm contributing to saying no to overpriced ebooks. Also, when I'm finished with a hardcopy book, I can legally leave it off at the free lend library at the rec-room of our condos' clubhouse and maybe pickup another in it;s place. We had an unpleasant incident where one woman was found to have 68 (donated) books hoarded in her condo and only was caught because she broke her ankle and someone went to drop off cookies and another book for her and found them. all. Management was very polite in reminding her to please return them , when she was on her feet again, which she did... Anyway, yes, 12.99 for an ebook I will read once then delete is over my budget..
