I have bought some books recently but all of them have been on my Wishlist and they were less than 2.99 so I am not complaining
.
My approach to the freebies that ATDrake and others post are that I download the ones that sounds interesting, and are by authors I have wanted to check out for awhile. But I don't add them to Calibre for several reasons. One is that I want to slice off a bit more on the Unread pile before I add them. Another is that I want to split the omnibus editions up into seperate books since I don't like omnibuses. I have no problems with thick books when it comes to paper books, but I hate when the page count is over 700 pages in ebooks. Odd, I know.
