I would read the entire history book the first few weeks of the school year just for the joy of learning history. But I always had to cram for the tests. I always got an A, but I'm sure it would have been a C or lower if I had to retake the exact same test an hour later. |

FWIW, I've never had a problem with Kobo Price Match once I've sent them a screenshot, making it at most a two-step process, and more often a one-step process, but everyone's MMV.
Would I trust the process with a $100 textbook? Probably not, but I've successfully matched some books that were in the $10 to $20 range, which is a lot for me. Since I use both the Kobo and Kindle apps on my phone, which is my main reader, that does help me minimize hassle somewhat. Quote:

Both say "not currently available for purchase". In the US, at least.

The Cider House Rules by John Irving $2.99 at Amazon US.
An absolutely terrific novel. Highly recommended. I enjoyed it far more than the movie that was made from it. Quote:

At least it wasn't like The Girl On The Train, where that was just a disappointing movie, not because of changes, but because it just wasn't very good. |

Older books published by Open Road or indie books, you can likely find them for $1.99 or even less. |
