Today's Musing Mondays question is... "Where do you buy / get most of your books?"I've mentioned probably a billion times that I don't buy many books, because I will only buy those that I've read and loved or that I've read and want to push to other people. But when I do buy books, I try to support the little guys. Sure, if I have a gift cert or something, I'll go to Borders or Barnes and Noble, because I like nothing better than free, but if I'm planning on spending my own money I definitely go indie.
I just recently moved 900 miles, so I'm still figuring out my way around the bookstores here in Jacksonville, but I have discovered two delightful shops already — Black Sheep Books, which is fairly close to my apartment, and Chamblin's Uptown, which is farther away downtown but comes with food! I've only made a book purchase at Black Sheep, but I can already tell it's going to be my new best friend for used book happiness, especially since the book I got there looked practically new for half the price. Love it.

I can buy used books if those are in good condition!
Have a great reading week ahead! Here is my Mondays: Mailbox/Where Am I/Musings post.
That's what I look for in a used book! Unless I'm at some really-cheap-book sale, in which case I will pass up quality because I'm spending very few dollars anyway. :)
