Same here, I typed my book into “search free books” and it came back at $31, but didn't tell you it wasn't free until you went to download it.

Many of these books are not free. It doesn't separate them very well between free and paid.

Not nearly as bad as having it happen on “Family Feud.”

For evidence of this you need look no further than the hundreds of thousands of people who audition for “American Idol,” each believing to the depths of their souls that they are a superstar. Hopefully one of them is, but even that hasn't happened for a long time.
