Some people buy a Starbucks coffee every day, and it probably comes out to that much a year.
If someone buys a book every three days, she is either reading professionally and/or gets a lot of enjoyment out of reading. So it may not be an unreasonable sum to spend, even assuming that the costly books combined with free, library, and older ones average out to $14 per (which still seems kind of high to me).
