I’d like to be one of those people who feels compelled to buy a book every time they go into a book store, but they’re like $20 for even a basic paperback. I don’t want to drop that much every time I go look at books
Depending on how voracious a reader you are, Kindle Unlimited may be worth investigating. I go through about 4 books a week, so the service ($14/mo) must have saved me about $1,000 by now.
Unfortunately I don’t read as much as I’d like, which is part of it. I get my ebooks from ‘other’ parts of the internet and that’s what I went to check.
I’m reading The Crying Lot of 49 and my version has some weird formatting. I wanted to check if it was just an eBook thing or a deliberate stylistic choice. Turns out it was just a weird eBook formatting thing
I used to work at a big w and when they have a book it’s always cheap. Especially kid’s books. I feel bad for independent toy stores because it’s so hard to compete with the big department stores there

They’re free at the library :)
I get them there when I can but I’m too slow a reader at the moment to not need a couple of renewals to get through a book
i usually prefer ebooks, cheaper and doesn’t take up space
And I can read them in the dark easier. The kids still sleep in our room so I can’t really use a light for regular books
I used to do that but the cost of books now are pretty high so I’ve stopped buying them.

Always check Big W first.
