    Hi,

    I'm looking for copies of a list of classic novels including 'Pride and Prejudice' 'Animal Farm' 'Wuthering Heights' , is there anywhere in Carlow town where I might pick up such titles, perhaps second hand, for less than the RRP?

    You could try the bookshop in the Carlow Shopping Centre (Superquinn one)

    I'm sure if they don't have it in the bookshop they could get it for you.

    charity shops - they are a load of them around the town. Go poking through them. The charity nearly Benetton is particularly good for books. And so is the Holy Angels Charity Warehouse in Graigue.

    Probably not much use but they're all free to download onto kindle at the moment.

    they are available free in every format. Go to projectgutenberg - search for what you want and then pick the file format you want.

    PDF format can be read on the computer if you don't have a e-reader.
