I've tracked down obscure print runs before, so I’ll give you the routes that actually work in practice. First place I look is the publisher or the author's official site: many small presses and indie authors sell print copies directly from their storefronts or through a webshop. If '
loathing you' by Amina Khan was released through an indie press or self-published, the author's site or their social links often point to where physical copies are available — sometimes even signed or limited editions. I always check for an ISBN on those pages; that makes searching elsewhere much easier.
If I don't find it there, my next stops are the big online retailers: Amazon (for new or third‑party sellers), Barnes & Noble, and Bookshop.org for supporting indie stores. For out‑of‑print or hard-to-find prints I search AbeBooks, Alibris, and eBay — I’ve found lovely used editions and unexpected seller copies that way. Also check local independent bookstores via IndieBound or your country’s equivalent; they can sometimes order print‑on‑demand titles through distributors like Ingram if the book has an ISBN.
Finally, don’t overlook author events, signings, and social media posts where Amina Khan might list limited runs, bundles, or partner stores. If the book is truly niche, contacting the author politely via their contact form or social DMs can yield exact ordering info or pre-order opportunities. I’ve picked up a few signed paperbacks that way — it’s always a thrill to hold the real thing.
