Anyone have a recommendation? I have a few good sites for gaming, hd movies and general stuff. But Nothing for good properly formated ebooks (not reall interested in the 1001 kungfu/weightloss/computer/how to con a woman books that the public sites are flooded with.
will be willing to trade |

I would recommend this site
http://www.truly-free.org/
He has an impressive collection of both fiction and non-fiction. You are allowed to download (borrow) 5 books from his library every two weeks. They come in various formats, but quite easy to convert to whatever format you want with Stanza.
If you make a donation of varying amounts you can download greater numbers at a time, or his entire collection. Worth a look.
Just be warned, if you try to go over the 5 book limit he will ban you. |

I like http://elbitz.net/login.php for e-books
BUT
REGISTRATIONS ARE CLOSED
Important - please read: Registrations are currently closed. Next June 15th
Their collection is VERY extensive (beyond the 1001 kungfu/weightloss/computer/how to con a woman books) broken down by category and usually pretty fast.
Wait for their next registration date and take advantage of it.

If you want ebooks for free, get mirc and log on to the undernet servers.
join channel #bookz
follow the directions for searching and downloading.
maybe 100,000 titles for downloading in many different categories. |

What is happening then?
The only big time book I am anticipating (I have never looked forward to the release of a book before), is Mark Twain's autobiography. But I'm fairly sure that will be coming out later in the year. Besides, I will be buying that in dead tree format. |

Not a torrent site, but it's better than any I've found. Without question.
Registrations are open. Take a look |

| Thanks for all the replies. Does anyone have any other suggestions? I am looking for a few books and none of these sites or any others I have tried have them. |

This is a great site, but be sure to register. I don't think you can do a proper search if you aren't logged in. |
