Just listened today to a podcast interviewing an indie author. His book is distributed partially through a non-Amazon printer, and the price has been the same for its entire release. Even so, he has noticed that occasionally Amazon will revert to some seller with a ludicrous price, even though the book is still available for well under half of the new purchase price. Could be a shady reseller that you’re running into. Don’t know if this is what you’re running into, but it reminded me of it.

I despise the Three Body Problem. I have read darker and bleaker stories, but there was something about it that hit differently than anything else.

The Magic Treehouse. I had to go into a special reading program because I was lagging behind the rest of my classmates in first grade. Went from barely being able to read, to only reading. I bet they never expected I’d be getting yelled at by teachers for reading too much in class.
