I'll add:
  • It looks as if you've already arrived at the realization that one $12 book might provide more pleasure than four $3 books. And especially if you're already topped up with $3 books.
  • Tastes change. No point in accumulating a library you won't want to read. Again, money that could be spent on better books. Try to keep purchases close to the reading of them.
  • Stop looking! Ignore the Deals forum here; unsubscribe from sale and deal emails and other notifications; get rid of bookmarks to deal pages. You can't want, much less buy, a deal you don't see.
