Mass Market Paperback Price Increase

3 Feb

I am an avid reader and I have been one since I was in the sixth grade.  I have been buying books whenever I had some disposable income for over 20 years so I have seen quite a few price increases for paperback books.  There is another increase taking place now.  Mass Market paperbacks by popular authors in the Sci-Fi genre are hitting $9.99. This means reading will cost me more this year than ever before.  I am noticing it now because several of the authors I read have new books coming out in the next few months. I wish the publishers weren’t instituting this price increase this year.
