This is about the only way I intend to make money on this site. If the traffic increases to the point that I need to put the site on its own server, I will probably need to add some other ads. But not until then.
I make about 4% on books you buy from these links. That means around 10 books = 1 beer. At about 25 books sold I break even on the year.
