I don't know if SFDebris has a standard price for a book review; I don't see it on the Donations page.
It's $50 for an episode of some series TV, and $175 for a film. Since books would probably take longer for him to get through than a film, and you obviously can't use clips from a book in a review, I think a book review would be a lot more work on SFDebris's part and would take a higher price unless it's something he's already read and is familiar with.
Book reviews = $$$?

It's 500$. He puts a lot of time and effort into book reviews and the cost reflects that.

So, the same cost as a video game then. I can understand why, since it's a larger time investment.

I didn't really think about that being larger time investment effects price. Now I know and knowing is half the battle.
