I recently found a great way to do this - many local stores offer used books. Not only is it a savings, but you can find rare copies. Also look at online platforms where people sell their books. You can often come across interesting finds there. Good luck with your search!

Hi! I've recently faced this challenge too, and https://booksrun.com/ . has helped me a lot. There you can find a huge selection of used books on a variety of topics, from fiction to textbooks. I was looking for a few scholarly titles myself and was pleasantly surprised at how affordable they were. What I particularly liked was the ability to compare prices of different editions of the same book. Sometimes the price difference is significant, and on BooksRun it's easy to see that. Plus, the site has a section for selling your books, which gives you the opportunity to not only buy, but also get rid of unwanted books and get paid for it. The quality of the books is also top notch. I ordered several volumes and they were in excellent condition, like new.
