    What kind of reading are you looking for?
    Novels, factual novels, factual books, textbooks...?
  • Factual novels as well as factual books.
  • If the books are for yourself why not have a look in a charity shop and see if anything takes your fancy. Our local one does 5 for a £1 so at that price the odd dud read isn't too bad.

  • Charity shops and/or the local library will give you plenty of choice for novels. For factual books it might be a bit harder, all the usual places (Amazon, Borders, etc) will have them. Quite expensive though.

    Health wise ...
    "The Magnesium Miracle" by Carolyn Dean? It's cheap from Amazon but I've seen it in the library and in a local charity bookshop.

    If you smoke and want to quit then buy Allan Carr's book...
