This used book that I bought for 12£ on the internet was apparently previously bought from Oxfam for 1.99£

I search this to get the title: "Entangled Life - How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds and Shape Our Futures"

I see £, so I'm going to assume it's the UK. I picked Manchester as a city to search.

I search the book.

Seven 2021 versions, three 2020 versions, and audio book are available.

Which means even if it's not available in OPs local library they could go to their library and get it on an interlibrary loan.

fyi OP said theyre from another country. Not that it makes other points made invalid.

Found two copies in the Municipal Library of Prague. This is not some super-obscure title.

I dont doubt that, but saying that its readily available assuming OP lives in the country where the book comes from is not necesarily true
