Bargain @ $1.99-$2.99 from Open Road Media (couponable @ Kobo, price should be the same in all the usual standard Canada & US retailers, may or may not also be discounted in other regions, etc.):
  • Book to Film Sale, featuring books that have been adapted to film like Sophie's Choice, Kramer vs Kramer (both with Meryl Streep in them), Million Dollar Baby, and others NB: the descriptive blogpost dates from May 2014, but apparently ORM just recycle the original one with new content, and they have a dedicated page for the sale here
  • 10 Books to Brighten Your Dark Winter Mood, mostly non-fiction humour (including an LGBT book), but there's some general/literary & genre fiction in there as well. I recommend the classic humorous memoir Cheaper By the Dozen (Wikipedia), about the 12 kids of early 20th century efficiency experts Frank (Wikipedia) & Lillian Gilbreth (Wikipedia). I read this a long time ago from the library when I was a kid and really liked it, so I'm picking it up tonight with the last of my Kobo contest coupons.

I think both sales are supposed to be good through February, so if you miss out on the coupon expiries for this round of the Kobo contest, you should be able to pick up any you want when the next one appears.
