(For example, I paid over $21.00 last year for Dana Stabenow's Whisper to the Blood in ebook on the same day the hardback was released).
Another pet peeve is things that have been out in paperback since oh, say, 2004, and they're still charging $17.00 for the ebook.
I HATE that idea. I am NOT going to pay hardcover price for an ebook no matter when it is released. No, a thousand times no!
