January wrapup:
Good stuff: Made 3,000 pages. Finished 10 books plus novella.

Ebook TBR up 12 books and audiobook TBR up 5 books. There is some crossover due to Whispersync. Most are parts of series/authors I'm already reading, which was a goal. A couple were strong recommendations from Mobilereads members (Joe Hill, Archer Mayor). A couple were replacements for paper books I used to have and really enjoyed.

No magazines read. Changed from 1 600+ page book per month to a straight 12 books for the year (currently the Dreaming Void by Peter F Hamilton).
Overall - I'm mostly irritated with myself that I went over budget for the month. None of my ebooks are more than $2.99 and the audiobooks $2-5 (except Hobbit which was I think $6.95), but they just add up piecemeal.
