I usually go to my local library, but I did pick up a cookbook a few weeks back from the resale shop for a dollar. The Whole Grain Baking Sampler.

The last two books I bought were "Ready Player One" by Ernest Cline, and "A Memory of Light", the final book in the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan (and Brandon Sanderson).  Both books are highly recommended, despite their various flaws.
