My library doesn't have this, I was really disappointed. I'm in Montgomery County, Maryland near the Howard County line, and would buy used for say $3 or borrow it if someone is willing to loan it. I'm gentle on books and a non-smoker, I do have a dog - she won't chew it, but she does shed and some people have allergies. Hope this isn't an innapropriate post I'm new to the group.
You can go on Amazon.com and buy this book used for $2.76. Also, you might check out a service like bookswap.com. My friend uses that and seems to like it. :)
Remember to always add $4 to an Amazon.com used book for postage. Some of the time it is actually cheaper to buy it new especially as part of a $25 order which means no postage.There are other good online sources for used books as well.
I was hoping to find it locally to avoid the shipping costs. I might take a loook at bookswap. Thanks.
Julie, I'll consider buying used online if the cost of the book and the shipping is more than a dollar less than new through Amazon with no shipping. I keep a wish list on Amazon, and I've been buying so much non-book stuff through them that I can almost always add in a book or two and skip the shipping. Most recently vitamins, and multiple sheet orders.I do have one used book store that I look at locally, but it isn't the kind of place where you can expect to find something specific. More of a place where you browse.
