When I first started reading ebooks I was guilty of spending upwards of $17 for a book just because I thought I HAD to have it RIGHT NOW. After looking at what I spent after the first year I realized that it was ridiculous. There is a book out right now that I really want by Philippa Gregory who is my favourite historical fiction author but it's $18.72 at Amazon:

$15.99 at Kobo:

I won't pay that much anymore. $12 is my max for any one book during the month and I've already reserved that amount for The Dresden Files
