LIL PSA HERE!!

If you enjoyed a book you read online, please consider buying it! My personal recommendation is (and will always be) Thriftbooks, an online resource for getting second-hand, steeply discounted books that would otherwise be left to gather dust as someone buys a brand new one off of Amazon.

Please support your local book stores and libraries, as well as buying second hand to minimize the number of new editions and printings made every year! In general, if it's a book that's been around for awhile, or isn't in great condition, you'll get a great bargain. You will be paying for shipping ($5 if you're in the US, much higher if you're outside of it), as well.

Note: if you make an account with thriftbooks, you get 8 points for every $1 spent, and a free book for every 500 points earned! If you're going to be buying books anyway, you might as well get points, and eventually a free book, for doing so!
