Hello, my name is Kelley, and I am the writer and editor of How to Buy Cheap Textbooks. As a freshman in college, I was very inexperienced about how to buy cheap textbooks. I believed it was wonderfully convenient to have all of the books I needed in one place, and it was wonderfully convenient for the university store. Looking back, I think I spent about $400 to $500 on textbooks alone every semester. By my last semester, I'd purchased all of my textbooks online, and I didn't even bother to buy textbooks for some classes. I created How to Buy Cheap Textbooks to help others avoid the same mistakes that I made.
