You have all seen them; the street vendors selling books on almost every street corner. Book lovers fondly refer to them as Inama bookshops. This is where you can get books at very affordable prices, especially second-hand ones.

Lots of people have enriched their home libraries courtesy of Inama bookshop, including yours truly. While second-hand books are okay, it is the sale of new releases that tends to be rather tricky. Whenever you encounter books freshly off the press, or on the streets, there are high chances that that book could be pirated.
