I’ll play the stats: my modal cost is $2, my mean cost is $6 and my average monthly outlay has been $15. *I’ve noted in recent years that my read books tend to fall out in near-thirds among purchased books; OverDrive and public domain; and audio (I don’t break out borrowed/bought for audio). |

I gave as a counter example Stephen King, Peter Straub, Joe Konrath and Clive Barker. I mentioned specific examples of specific books that you could check yourself. You have not done the same. But honestly, at this point I'm dropping it. |

I can't imagine why I would even bother. Do your own research.

Here's the relevant part of the post in question: Quote:
In my replies, I tried to cite specific authors and/or specific titles. I actually was going to make each example an Amazon link, but was afraid the mods would think I was spamming the boards. Nobody else wants to read this any further. We can just disagree. But don't think I called you a liar. |
