I am not sure how to add it up.

But my wife (who originally said she did not think she would like a ebook reader) loves it. And a recent purchase for a mother-in-law suddenly has 3 people reading our electronic library.

So with the Terry Pratchett, Jasper Fford, Kathy Reichs, Evanovitch, and several new authors this year ... I am guessing about $300-400 on Amazon. But divide this by 3 and the $113/person does not sound so bad.

We also took about 4 cases of paperback books to Goodwill so we dont have to pay to store them (or pay to move them). We are hoping to get rid of the storage area this year so the books took up some small percentage of $160/month.
