how do you choose books on your e- reader /kindle?

[EliotNess]

I alwys get a sample. A couple of times ( yes YOU ANTONIA FRASER) the minute the book's sample is over, you buy it and it suddenly gets shit.

I am needing to stack up some form holiday - can I stil buy from UK amazon abroad?

I mostly buy the freebies, so I don't have this problem.

I've certainly downloaded freebie books onto my kindle when abroad.

I buy books from experience of an author or genre that I enjoy or from recommendations.

I don't ever bother with samples.

oh lord I always pay

I look at the daily deal on Amazon when I want to stock up on books. I always pay though (have learnt lesson the hard way ).

The kindle daily deal, sometimes get good ones through that, otherwise it's browsing through the amazon site or mn.
I stock up and buy whatever takes my fancy. I usually buy when they are reduced in price, only buy full price if desperate .

I've just bought another 5 books and it's this threads fault
