I want to get back into reading, so I’m thinking of getting a Paperwhite. But I have no idea if it’s possible to transfer files to it from a computer, and I have no experience with pirating books.

Do I go to the same places I torrent movies and games or are there special places dedicated to E-Books?

EDIT: So many awesome answers on here! You guys have been very helpful. Thanks a lot!

    Personally I would recommend a Remarkable. It’s more expensive but soooo much more useful with a pen.

    You can load books onto a Kindle, but format conversion is required and the results are not always pretty.

        It really is. Shit, I don’t fawn over tech purchases, but the remarkable is so damn useful.

        Pretty easy to homebrew on too, no jailbreak required. I’m tempted to make a libgen app for it.

          Yeah and they’re constantly adding phenomenal user requested features in their updates (even for the original kickstarter device that I have). A libgen app would be convenient!

            I’m still learning to code for the thing, so let’s see how it goes!
