In your situation, I wouldn't spend any money on books.

1. Use a library if there's one available to you.

2. There's tonnes of free books online - if you want fiction, project Gutenberg is full of older books; and every technical/CS/math topic has great free textbooks that you can download.

3. Pirating - I wouldn't feel guilty about it at all if I were in your situation.
