I prefer to own the books but sometimes I regret buying because the books did not match my expectations. Books in Malaysia are generally expensive so I have to pick and choose titles to buy.

To cut down spending, I also rent books. There is a book rental store called SS Readers Corner. It is located in SS15, Subang Jaya. There's a webpage ssreaderscorner.wordpress.com (it has the contact details & Google Map). Have a look!
