What We Say: AbeBooks specializes in used books but you can also get some incredible deals on new ones! The site puts you in touch with thousands of book sellers- some of those stores are actual bricks & mortar retail outlets, while many are operated out of someone's living room. Either way, they are vetted to a certain degree by AbeBooks, so you have an excellent chance of receiving the book on time and in the condition in which it was described. They claim to have over $100 million new, used, rare and out-of-print books listed.

Useful Services BookSleuth: "Is there a special book that you read, or perhaps had read to you, at some point in your life but you can't remember the author and title?

Visitors from all over the world will read your post, and one of them is bound to know exactly what you're talking about and post a response."
