My name is Art3mis and I'm addicted to buying e-books. I'd like to join the thread, if that's alright. When I first started e-reading, I didn't have any disposable income to spend on e-books, so it was easy and necessary to be satisfied with Project Gutenberg and Amazon freebies. However, I've recently gotten an income that allows me to have a small disposable spending amount - and now things are getting out-of-hand!
I think that my addiction is made worse by the fact that I don't have a wishlist of books that I'd like. I don't really like keeping lists (unless I'm cleaning house - then ticky boxes are very motivational!), and it ends up making books feel like a chore. What this means, though, is that I end up buying
every book that looks interesting - I've only just discovered the $0.99 books on Amazon, and this is all just slaughtering my bank account!
I've purchased 24 e-books since 1 July and the average cost is $7.75.
