I read a book a day. I'm not going to be spending $15/day to fill my reading needs. That would be about half my rent expences. Can't afford that.
Absolutely. It's not about what you want to read, it's about how many books you can afford to not read.

My total expenditure on books is probably up, but it's spread much more widely.
