Writing & Publishing Pricing for a 1st time poetry book

[Writer4Jesus]

What would be a good price to sell a new (about 159 pages) poetry book for? I started out with $8, but wanted to run it by more experienced authors first.

Is it paperback or ebook?

I talked to another friend of mine and she recommended $10 and also looking at other poetry books on Amazon.

I'm not sure what you should charge but wanted to make it clear for others.

Update: Made a decision on the paperback - $10. The e-book is $5. The e-book is already available for Pre-Order!
Thank you everyone for all your suggestions and advice!

That sounds good. Although I'd keep an eye on prices for the ebook. $3.99 may be closer to the basic price.
