If you love reading like me but you don't have unlimited income, books can be pretty expensive. Even if you get them on sale, they could still cost you quite a bit. That being said, I love buying books because if I borrow them from the library, I feel like I'm pushed to read it. It's just so much better reading them on my own terms.
So, here is a guide I put together of how I get books outside the regular routes.
Audible
I listen to audiobooks when I'm driving since traffic can get pretty heavy. I haven't looked into other audiobook services but Audible is definitely a good one. You can choose your price point (Gold, Platinum, Annual) and you have rollover credits. Since you can get any book you want with the credit, it's a nice way to try out some of the more expensive audiobooks. You also get discounts for membership and special deals throughout the year.
Book Outlet (my share link)
BookOutlet is a great place to find bargain books online. They have a pretty wide selection and sometimes even have promos going to stack onto the already discounted prices. The selection is always changing so it's nice to visit every once in a while to see if they have a book you want in.
Book Warehouse
This is the brick-and-mortar version of Book Outlet. They aren't everywhere so check the locations to see if they have a place near you. There aren't many locations, but if they do have one near you it's definitely worth checking out.
Kindle Unlimited
I actually have a kindle and so at $9.99/month, this isn't a bad deal. They also have a 30-day trial to see if you like it. There is a 10-book limit for how much you can hold at one time, but it is unlimited reading. You just need to switch them out after you are done reading.
