When I went into the library to get my card, they had row after row of these books - I could just go pick up 30 at a time. But I am too embarassed to check the book out and carry it around.
I also like cheap little romance. Now I have 8 library cards from 5 different states. The Sony PRS-505 is well worth it. Most of the books are in Abode format. I read about 20 books a month, that adds up to about $75 a month for a $3.50 book, so I'm saving a ton by having the Sony and checking the books from the library. I too love the privacy of checking out these books.

Where are you getting the bundle for $15? I pay $17 for 8 Presents and $9.99 for the remaining 4 monthly; that's why I started collecting library cards.
