You can find books at public libraries, borrow books from friends, pick them up at free book swaps, dig them out of someone's trash, buy them at used book stores or yard sales, or you can shop for them at book stores (small local ones or big chains), or you can order them on-line. I've gotten books all these ways. The books are all good. Here I link to Amazon.com when I can because they provide a lot of fast, free information about the books and I do like to buy from them occasionally. You may also want to take a look at Powells Books, which provides an excellent website and good service. Please find books in whatever way pleases you, and then tell me about it.
