HOW MUCH DID YOU SPEND ON THE RECENT FICTIONWISE SALE?
Being a new owner, and wanting to build up my stock of books, and being amazed at what was available, (books I have not seen for years in the book shops I frequent), I therefore spent over US $400 plus my membership costs. Still have $85 in micropay rebates.

Most of the books I bought are ones I own or have owned before and want/will read again.

I work in different countries and spend most of the year away from home, and usually away from any decent book shop, so ebooks and a reader are the way to go.

My only problem, and it is a little one, is that most ebooks are available from US sellers and I find US spelling irritating. I would imagine the irritation is reciprocated by US educated people.
