And if you click on the right/left arrows just below this, you can scroll through some books with the pbook and library ebook costs. Some samples were:

David Baldacci, The Fallen at $22.80 for the pbook, $87.00 for the ebook.
Hilary Rodham Clinton, What Happened at $52.99 for the pbook, $104.01 for the ebook.
Malcolm Nance, The Plot to Destroy Democracy at $21.90 for the pbook, $109.00 for the ebook.
Anne Proulx, Barkskins at $46.79 for the pbook, $156.03 for the ebook.
Linwood Barclay, A Noise Downstairs at $19.20 for the pbook, $65.00 for the ebook.
