[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do a mix. I read about 80 books a year and about 30 are from the library, 20 or so purchased second hand or borrowed, and the rest I purchase. Unfortunately, here in Springfield, we don't have any local independent bookstores, just one Barnes and Noble. A lot of the books I purchase are on vacation in local bookstores that I stumble upon. But the rest are from Amazon which is a separate discussion. [/quote] You can buy books from independent stores online! Check out Bookshop.org. You will pay more, on average, than Amazon, but I balance this out by also buying a decent amount used books online. I also try to avoid Amazon there, and use Abe Books or thriftbooksonline. [/quote] I love to use Bookshop.org.[/quote]
