Amazon Kindle daily deals have been a real bane on my credit card since I discovered it. Anything between 1-3 dollars that seems to pique my interest I snap it up and I seem to be doing it twice a week lately in 2-3 book amounts. With the intent that eventually I'll have time to read it.Some really good series also popped up on that list too.
Oi.
I did that too much on the kindle daily deal, thinking ooohhhh, 99p!!! I ended up with loads that I'll probably never get to unless I really am eternal.

I own enough unread books that will do me for a decade. And they keep writing more! I love having a throne to read on, thanks ;)
Sleeping Giants just went on sale for only $1.99. This book was just released a few weeks ago. I read an ARC copy and it was really good. I would recommend picking up a copy. You can't go wrong for $1.99.https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00ZNE...
For all the Octavia E Butler fans Lilith's Brood just went on sale for $3.99. That's 3 books in one. The books are Dawn, Adulthood Rites, and Imago all on one book.

Amazon's deal of the day today is The Rook by Daniel O'Malley is on sale for $2.99. That good on 7/27/16 only. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...
Another good source of cheap books is your annual library book sale. My county has a 4 day event each year (about 400,000 books - half library books, and half are "once read" private donations in excellent condition). The last day is $3 per box (about 25 hardbacks in a box), and if you volunteer to help for 4 hours you get a $10 credit. I got all 11 books of Sword of Truth, the 3 volume "Black Prism" by Weeks, the second Abercrombie trilogy, etc.

I'll have to check out a library book sale. Ship of Magic which is the first book of the middle trilogy in the world of Fitz and the fool is on sale for Kindle $1.99 from $9.99. I believe this one is completely different characters from the ones in the first and third trilogies
Here's a great Kindle freebie offer; the ten book series as one collection: The Chronicles of Dragon Collection by Craig Halloran.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B013VNYR74/
Last month (or month before that, not really sure) I went to the book fair and got some really good deals! Bought more than 10 books and one of them 1st edition ;)Don´t really read ebooks :/ I bought Prince Lestat and the Realms of Atlantis but don´t think it was on sale, no probably wasn´t

Each of the books in the series for $1.99 each.
Interesting review by John Gwynne of the Malice series.
"This was a great read - finished it a while ago but Christmas festivities got in the way of review-writing. These days I tend to lean more towards historical than fantastical, so this was quite a change for me. Made me think of Dune, it was 1 part fantasy, one part sci-fi, and totally EPIC! Excellent characters and cool action, with a strong Egyptian feel thrown into the mix. Inventive and cerebral but grounded in character. Looking forward to the next one."
