I've been keeping track of the ebooks I read this year. I've just finished "Use of Weapons" by Iain M. Banks, and that takes me to 154 books and (by a strange fluke) to exactly $500.00 spent on those 154 ebooks.

I suspect that soon most of my ebook purchases will in in pounds sterling rather than dollars, now that Fictionwise is declining. So this is probably the last year I'll account for my books in dollars only. (Even though I have sufficient backlog to keep going for a couple of years!)

Hmm... $500 is about £320, and we're almost exactly 320 days into the year. A £1/day reading habit....

How much is your reading habit?
