Appropriate to Mention Low Price of e-book in Review?

Post by bookowlie »

If we know that the price of the e-book on Amazon is a great price, is it appropriate to mention that in the review. I just finished a book and am writing the review. I noticed that the price for the e-book is really low at the moment, and I thought it would be a nice plug for the author if I mentioned that in the review. It was such a good book, and extremely affordable, too.

I think it is fine.

I would suggest wording it a little carefully since the price could change.

I think it is fine! I'm sure people would purchase it sooner than later if it was on their read list! It's always nice to get a good deal on books :)
