Ways to find cheap ebooks
This thread
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...ic+open+access has links to a large number of free books.
Many publishers have $1.99 - 3.99 sales on older nonfiction ebooks which are advertised on Bookbub or other such mailing lists. Searching publisher + desired price range through Jungle Search can yield interesting results (although setting Harper* as publisher will provide 1000+ books to look through at that price range).
