Just as I'd given up there seems to be a Kindle summer sale, I've bought lots including a couple of wishlist book:
Catherine Hall, The Proof of Love
Sofka Zinovieff, The House on Paradise Street
Michelle Moran, Madame Tussaud
Elizabeth Haynes, Revenge of the Tide
Cath Staincliffe, Split Second
just a few of those on offer.

Sorry, I couldn't find a link for the sale for a while, oddly enough. They seem to have reduced all the books and then put up the details later.
Here it is:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/feature.html/ref=kin_post_uk_07272012_B00802QSEW??ie=UTF8&docId=1000659763
They also give you a voucher for a litlte more money if you spend between £10 and £20 - the sale officiailly opened at 9 am this morning and lasts until the end of August. Presumably to tempt you back to spend even more (like I really need such trickery!)

Jeffrey Archer has a 20p one and a few other cheapies (not my thing even for 20p but someone might be interested)
For fans of historicals and big house stories Kate Morton's first two books are 89p each and Gillian Bagwell's new book is 99p on Kindle. I only bought the Bagwell for twice that 3 days ago, gah! I also paid double that for the others and I already had charity shop paperbacks but at least I've read one of them!

And for those who like literary novels (and memoirs) that sound a bit depressing, Picador are running under £1 offers
Cormac McCarthy, No Country for Old Men
Andrea Ashworth, Once in a House on Fire
Trezza Azzopardi, The Hiding Place
and errrrrrrmmmmm
Helen Fielding's Bridget Jones books (not so highbrow really though they're fun if you like Austen referenced chicklit)

josette:
Quite tempted by this as well
A vine pick I really liked last year, The Boy in the Suitcase by Lene Kaaberbol and Agnete Friis, another Scandi-crime novel, is now £1.31.
US crime fiction - I haven't read them but I've been meaning to for a while, especially since I saw her speak at an event, and there's lots of Sandra Scoppetone available for between 77p and £1.28 apiece, including 5 books in her Lauren Laurano series.
Macmillan imprints Picador and Pan are doing various deals at the moment, and Malcolm Bradbury's 1970s satirical campus novel The History Man is 74p. Picador is offering a new book every Monday this month and I believe tomorrow's is to be Alan Hollnghurst's The Line of Beauty. Pan is still offering C J Sansom's Winter in Madrid at 74p.
