For audiobooks I literally just use Youtube. The BlackStone collection tends to be the best stuff and its always on Youtube.

Libgen is a goto but you can also just try Google Books. You'd be surprised.

don't pirate books. Just buy them. Authors make shit for money as it is. You could also visit a library.

Edge case. Was looking for a previous edition of a book, could not find it anywhere. Came up instantly on libgen.

Normally I wouldn't pirate anything, but I already own the current edition of the book and would like it without all the annoying graphs and illustrations that litter the current edition.
 
I downloaded a whole bunch of sci-fi and fantasy books on TPB, I'm thinking of getting more books online but of other genres but any other genres you guys would recommend? I'm open to try anything besides romance and horror that over the top gory or just shock for the sake of it.
Oh I almost forgot I'm also looking for classics of literature
 
Tbh there are some libraries these days that have open-access digital libraries. Some. And since this is a piracy thread, Libgen and Pirate Bay are the biggest go-to. Youtube is free real estate for audiobooks. Archive.org for manuscripts, old audiobooks and computer software. Internet Sacred Text Archive for old religious texts, I think there's some Shakespeare texts as well. The Trove (not the Australian one) for TTRPG titles, that's where I got better digital DnD handbooks.

Project Gutenberg is a huge repository for classic lit, both ebooks and audiobooks. There are some redundant titles so I recommend narrowing down your searches.

scribd works well for me. Books, documents, pdfs, anything you could want. And pro tip- Cancel your subscription right before the end of the first month and they will always give you another free month. This is repeatable. I've had my free subscription for like a year and a half now, which has given me plenty of time to find all the deviant literature and nazi era textbooks my heart could desire.
 
Pirate Bay was always my go-to. Just type in EPUB dump and you'll get a trove of all kinds of different genres. You'll have to do a little work filtering out what you don't like (lot of romance novels...) but each dump usually has a few thousand books.

I have a little over 19,000 ebooks doing this, so I think I'm set for life.
