I bought the ebook version. The length of the book made it worth it to me, $13 for something that'll take me a week to finish is a pretty fair trade IMO. Plus buying a new release/full price book from a mainstream publisher is something I rarely indulge in.

If you mean the ebook is expensive (it's $12.74 at B&N), I agree, but then I don't think the prices the publishers are asking for many ebooks are reasonable and I don't buy them.

I'm willing to buy a hardcover that I can either keep, gift to one of my kids or a friend, or resell once I've read it. I'm not one of the "ebook only" readers.
