[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I buy from https://www.thriftbooks.com/ and https://www.wonderbk.com/ a lot, especially for my kids.  Then I either donate the books or sell them back locally for store credit.  [/quote]

We just need more books in circulation and need to keep purchasing books for publishers and the authors' livelihood (duh). We can't expect to buy one copy and pass it around forever and expect authors and publishers to work on that model.

I purchase a fair amount of books either from recommendations from the Week or from people discussing their works on NPR. I want to support all that. Then I put them info free libraries and find good things to read from there.

For the other items where I want a specific book but don't want to go broke (like hunting down all the books in an older series recommended here that might get expensive), I use the library and give it plenty of time.  [/quote]

The books op mentioned have sold millions. I don’t disagree with paying authors. It’s the middlemen who are getting rich here though. [/quote]
