Maybe from your school library or regular library? You can also find free websites like Sora, Libby, and other things. You could also ask your parents for a kindle, maybe for birthday or a holiday you celebrate? (If you do)

cheapest books are probably at walmart that i've seen. if u wanna get some for free you can use oceanpdf where you just download a book and read it on pdf, or get libby

being broke isn't embarrassing I'm 18 and I'm broke. can't get a job is so real I feel like no one is hiring or will never hire me won't even let me have an interview like bro lazy much. I feel that tho. if only Barnes n Noble had sales.

I get most my books on Amazon (my mom usually pays for them) but if I buy them usually target or Barnes n Noble

Hi! You can also grt free epubs on sites like annas archive and ebookhunter, and read them on your device! I started doing that when I was broke and reading a looot, later I got myself a kindle and now I download the free epubs on my kindle (I'm still a broke student)

[Karla]

hello, you can get free epubs on netgalley and booksirens (arcs). for netgalley you can download app on your phone and read there if you dont have kindle 😁 gl❤

You can usually get a library card for free or you could borrow from friends. If you do get a library card, see if they also support Libby, so you could read and listen to books on your phone for free. I also use ThriftBooks when none of those work.

hi! if you want to read books online oceanofpdf has a lot of books free to download, or if you search up any book with 'pdf' after it on google or pinterest, they're usually avalible. but if you want physical copies to own, i recommend half price books, books-a-million, or thriftbooks. amazon also has a feature where you can buy gently used books for much cheaper. hope this helps :)

[Sawyer]

You can get pretty cheap books on the website Book Outlet :)

[Hannahhh ;) [free palestine]]

definitely get a library card so you can read physical books as well as on Libby or whatever app your library works with. I get all my cheap books from the works and sometimes at supermarkets like Asda and Sainsbury’s but if you don’t live in the uk then you won’t have those

[harri :)]

hey! this is late but i have some advice if you go on google and type: *book name* pdf or online book you can usually find it online! sometimes on amazon they are really cheap (£5-£10)

[cecilia ₊˚ෆ]

if you’re okay with reading on your phone you can download epubs of the book you want and read from your device! or thrift stores have a lot of books for like $1-2 usually

do you have a subway near you? I'm 14 and that's where I work :)

hey just for future the golden rule of those websites is to never post the names publicly! no harm done but many people rely on them so always best to play it safe and keep it to dms

Any little free libraries in your neighborhood? You may find something interesting in those.

Also if you have a library card, the app Libby lets you check out books from your library.

You can also download the Kindle app on your phone (if you don’t own a kindle)

[annabelle]

girly! don't be embarrassed that's literally me except I'm 16 rip
my parents won't let me get a job till I can drive myself there, so yeah.
the library is great, borrow books off friends, there's library apps you can get for ebooks, street libraries, ask for books for your birthday, oceanofpdf.com has free ebooks to download
all the best! hope you can find books haha >3
