I have enough stuff already that I don't need any snippets or partial books.

So, to capture my interest in your book that otherwise wouldn't have caught my attention, it would have to be free. It's not that I'm averse to paying for ebooks, because I'm not, I've bought well over 500. But to get me to invest the time in reading something that I'm not sure is my thing, I want the entire book. Perhaps just my quirk, but it's why a free book gets me to download it, but samples mean nothing to me.

So many different kinds of shoppers online! I only download one at a time so there's rarely anything unread on my Kindle - guess I'm a clutter freak! lol
