I buy most books from amazon. I see no need to pre order, amazon is great at telling me when any of my favourite authors has a new book coming out. I add it to my wish list. Amazon then tells me when it is released. If I can not wait, as in will read within the week, I will buy it. Otherwise amazon tells me when it is on special. I then work out if that price will make me buy right then. Or again I wait until I am ready to read it to purchase. I had turned into a book hoarder and had to mend my ways
