OMG you did NOT just do that to me....A Taste of Haiti (Hippocrene Cookbook Library) by Mirta Yurnet-Thomas and Jay H. Moskowitz, OMG it's $1.99 (altho are cookbooks on the Kindle good? well I don't really fucking cook anyway, but I'd love to have it....)
I usually get my cookbooks in the dead-tree versions because the Kindle versions aren't that good for paging through and flipping back and forth.
That being said, I've got several Kindle cookbooks that were free or cheap deals, and I tend to download them on the Kindle app on the PC, as it's faster to page through, and take screenshots to print out when using them to cook.
The "A Taste Of..." series is really hard to resist. I've been resisting all morning...
I buy reading cookbooks on Kindle--the kind where I am unlikely to actually make anything out of the cookbook, but I read it for entertainment or inspiration. (There are a lot of cookbooks that I consider useful and valuable that I have never actually followed a recipe on.) If I am going to want to actually cook a recipe, I go dead-tree, so I can put it on my counter, get tomato sauce on it, etc., with impunity.
(The exception is free-off-the-Internet cookbooks, where I don't want to do a lot of extraneous printing, and it makes more sense to put it on my kindle than to prop my laptop on the counter.)
