to keep track of your books..... get a good reads account (app and webpage). You can scan your books and then customize ways to organize them digitally..... can even add its location in the house!
I LIVE in the discount book bin at the library. They're super cheap with a lot of variety and you can get some really good stuff. One time, I picked up a massive edition of The Odyssey for like a dollar. Even the books you don't want can be useful. When I was younger, I used to go on book trading websites and trade in the cheap books they were selling that I didn't want for ones that I did.
One thing I have done is buy just a few here and there throughout the year then in November I hit all the deals for Black Friday. I spend a lot but for the most part it’s just once a year and I save tons.
So true… they are consistently a few dollars or more cheaper. And they run free shipping sales so often as long as you are willing to wait you can save yourself quite a bit of $!
I would like to add on the physical book vs electronic book topic.... please consider buying the physical book for it is able to be passed down from generation to generation. These Christian books we are buying NEED to be able to be passed down for generations. Electronic books die with the person who owned them. PLEASE keep this in mind when purchasing christian books. As we have seen throughout history, ideas and topics being squashed, it is easier to squash these ideas if they are electronic.
What depth are you looking for? Pastoral, technical, or devotional commentary? And what type of access… print and digital inside US? Or access outside US? - Just so I know what to recommend.
