However ....

kindle £9.02
Lovereading £11.99
" " £13.65
Foyles £15.83

Guess what I did ?
And Amazon had a higher price for the paperback also that matched the price for the Kindle edition. I thought the whole idea with book-buying clubs was that they could get extra low prices. So why did you expect the book-buying club to be more expensive in this case? The rational thing ought to be to buy from the book-buying club.
