It's almost 8 years since I got my first Kindle, so that's really not a huge amount. A little over £10 a month, which is less than I spend on my train fare every single day.

On the other hand, I have only read just over half of that value, so there's about £460 that could have stayed in my pocket.

(My total for all other ebook vendors added together is roughly £175.)
My Amazon total is around £1180 on 878 books. I'm not sure of the exact total, since some books I'd bought elsewhere and then also at Amazon. Only 319 of them left to read...


And I've done well this month. Six books read so far, and only three bought.

I'm still twelve up on the year, but I have to admit that I'm pleased with pretty much all my purchases this year. So I'm doing better on quality of purchase, even if the quantity still needs work.
