And as I can't read library books on my Kobos, I rarely read books in my native language. Most of my reading is in English, where books are much cheaper (generally, that is - even if a new release is expensive, it usually will be discounted after a while).
Do you think they are more expensive because they've been translated or is it just pure profiteering?
