Where am I suppose to be able to find books? Amazon a shit, Barnes & Noble a shit, there ain't shit worth of bookstores around me. I have money and I must spend it on reading. My particular itch is for Bavarian history and non-Roman European history.

There's a ton of public domain history books you get off of the interbuttz for free. Check Project Gutenberg, Archive.org, and Wikisource for stuff you're interested in.

Here, just by typing "Bavaria" into Gutenberg I came up with a biography on King Ludwig II of Bavaria:

That is the natural state of all gooks. They crave the BWC pulsating in their throats.

For Gutenberg and all the majors wikis datasets you can download them in their entirety over at
https://wiki.kiwix.org/wiki/Content_in_all_languages
Then you can read them with a .zim file reader or host your own local server and access it through your web browser.

If you need to spend money go to thrift or second hand stores for a huge variety. Universities and libraries used to have book fairs back in the pre-COVID days that were pretty good. Some of my favorite books were found there by accident.

 No.1630

Alibris has always served me well. Used book stores in meatspace (the local kind, not half-price books, etc.) have nice finds as well.

There's a lot of scans (with or without OCR) on google books. Most of those and lots of other scans are in archive org text section.

 No.2740

What the fuck are you some type of retard? Perlego, for starters, it's got a free trial. And go to your local library for a mystery pick, us Americans have been doing it for years. Pick out a nice young adult book like Peter pan if you're a tard.

>amazon is having a massive promotion where I live atm
>check the catalog
>dozens of books about the Holocaust and "surviving" it
>lgbtq books
>nigger books
>books wrote by woman to woman
>books about christianism and socialism
Yep, almost 100% shit, even the books wrote by good writers are lacking by not having good selection or being censured

 No.5485

Just use little free libraries. It's what I've done. They have one in my neighbourhood. Why waste money on buying books when you can just use those? Easy peasy.

Gutenberg lately turned to some odd direction: plain catalog disappeared, only search and bullshit "book shelves". Also, very insistent "popular" suggestions everywhere.

Of the really big ones, Archive: https://archive.org/details/texts
Of course, there's some kindle "library" nonsense, but on the upside they uploaded tons of books scanned by Gaggle, so you only need URL to read them without «hurr durr please enable all our spyware to confirm you are an actual sheep».
