    "• In common with Zoe Williams I have been boycotting Amazon since I learned about its tax affairs last year. However, unlike Zoe, this has proved to be a revelation rather than an inconvenience as I have obtained better deals from other suppliers, such as John Lewis and Waterstones Marketplace than I would have done from Amazon.

    I still check Amazon's prices before buying as this adds to my satisfaction of knowing not only that I have saved money, but in the last few weeks they have lost about £600 of my custom.

    • Zoe Williams need not be inconvenienced by boycotting Amazon. I am boycotting it too and I checked my local independent bookshop's website and found a link to Hive.co.uk. It delivers for free to your local shop and I was pleased to find my book was cheaper than on Amazon. A proportion of the price is paid to the bookshop. I ordered my book last Saturday and it arrived on Tuesday.
