Of course I do, I don't read most of the books I own though. I just keep on a shelf to appear smarter than I am when company is over.

The books I do buy are ones that I'm sure I'll re-read. I've read some books at least 10x over and I'm still not bored of it.
Though sometimes I just go to Chapters (the Canook version of Barnes and Noble), pick out a book, find one of the chairs they have set up around, sit down, and read the entire thing. Saves a few bucks. |

I have no idea how they figure out the price, I guess the author does, but I could be wrong. I bought some books in a series the other day and they were all between 6.00 & 7.00 a piece. So far all the books that I have purchased have been less then buying the hardback or the paperback version of it. I live in an apartment and it is small so this is really a space saving issue. Plus it is good for the trees I think!! LOL |

Oh and one more thing. You can keep your books on your own Hard drive if you want to or Amazon has them for you in your online library. So you can reread them
as often as you like. They do have a service to convert other types of files, as well. Mobi and pdf and word documents. My boss did a 36 page guide for a trip
he was taking and had it converted so he could put it on the kindle and have it with him at all times!
