Amazon is good. I find books for cents (literally) however the shipping and handling REALLY gets me.......... For about 12 books, my total came out to $22 however shipping and handling was almost $40. In that case, it's not worth it. Anyone know of a website that may have these types of books that are inexpensive and shipping and handling costs are not that bad. I think s & h for each book was $3.49. Thanks. Im looking for books like GO ASK ALICE, CRANK, SPEAK, etc....

P.S. The $40 is aside from the $22, in that case my total came out to $66. Not worth it when the S & H is 2x the price of my total cost of books.

I always use the "new and used book" selection from amazon.com. I can normally pick up used paperbacks for a dollar, and sometimes less. It is always weird when the postage costs more than the book itself. Give that a try. Find the book you want and then see if someone is offering it as a cheap used book. Sometimes they even sell new books for a lot less than regular stores.

I use two different sites: Abebooks.com is good and then there's alibris.com. Good luck!
