90% Off Two Books at Kobo

While they last, there are two new coupon codes working at Kobo for 90% off on any non-Agency book: welcome90us and welcome90ca, in addition to the two 75% off coupons. If you use up all four of those (which you can use on yourself or to send a gift book, so long as it is coupon eligible), then there are also two 50% off coupons: welcome50us and welcome50ca. After those six are gone, it's back the 45% or less coupons on the right sidebar.

Here are a few new books at Kobo, in addition to the earlier suggestions, that I found by cruising thru the new releases and best seller lists. My biggest problem is narrowing down the selection to just two....
You can generally tell if the coupon code will work by looking at the price - if it doesn't end in .99 OR if there are two prices listed (for example: "List price: $28.99; Our price: $17.99"), then it is usually eligible for a coupon code. To use the coupon codes, you click Buy Now, then search for the link that says "Have a gift card or promo code? Use it here" (if it isn't there, it isn't eligible for a coupon), click it, then enter the coupon code and click on Apply. I always double check the summary on the right, which will then show the promo discount and the total at the bottom, where what you will be charged is shown below the Buy Now button.

Keep in mind, all books at Kobo are in EPUB format, with DRM (even self-published titles), so you won't be able to use these on an eInk Kindle. They will work fine on an iPad or Kindle Fire (using an app such as Aldiko), any Android Tablet, the Vox, a Kobo reader, NOOK reader or even a Sony (anything that can be loaded via Adobe ADE, in fact).
