All e-readers offers books on their website/ibooks, paid and free. Great!
However, if you are looking to find more books or something that you are interested in but can’t find it in those shops.

This post will help you do just that!!

The web is huge!! You have no idea where to look. First thing you do is to search in Google. Typing Free Ebooks or Free Magazines!
Hopefully! You land here, then you are sorted! Unfortunately, many people end up in some confusing sites or just a bunch of lousy written books / magazines.

Here is a way to find the books/magazine you want. I’m just using the standard format for ipad/kindle. Kindle uses Mobi, while Ipad uses Epub. Both device will read pdf format(which is most magazines, and quite a lot of books too). I don’t want to list down what magazines or books you can find, as you have to do the work and you will be surprised by the amount of good books and magazines you can download for free.

There are 2 ways!

First Approach

Downloading directly from Books/Magazines Sites. I will list down the few that I use and then the way I search for books/magazine.

For books/magazine Galore. Check out : -

Ebookee – Tons of book/magazine update. All kinds of category, can be quite messy.

Ebook30 – Variety of foreign books and magazines. Great source too! And a lot of COMICS!

Ebooks Nest – Mostly computer books/magazines. Very good source.

For Magazines :-

Magazines Download - Very organised magazine updates

Pretty much ebookee and ebook30 covers most of the magazines you can find.
They will normally have a link to file sharing sites like Mediafiles/Rapidshare/Filefront/Hotfile/Filesonic.

*Edited*
Used to be hotfile, now seems like FILESONIC is the place to go. Tons of things to download with a filesonic account…leave me a comment to find out!

Register here : FILESONIC

As these sites are very complex due to the amount of books they have.
I have found an easier way to search and go thru the updates.

Sign up for a Google Reader account.

You can add the RSS feed of the new books/magazine that gets updated and they are normally sorted by category in Ebook30.
For Ebookee/Ebook Nest, they are all jumbled into one rss, so it can be a bit confusing.

What you do is you add those Rss feed into google reader. They will be updated and listed.

At that point all you have to do is just Do a Search on google reader. They will search thru the list of books that is loaded in.

It will be easier to search this way, as compared to searching on those sites (Too many results)

Searching for *french*, you will get books/magazines in french or about french or learning french. So it is a very good way to search.

You can get a lot of good computer and business books too. Even Audio/Video guides to photography and stuff.

Second Approach

This is a bit in the grey zone! Do as you wish.

This method uses torrent. (using torrent programs like utorrent for mac or pc)

Search for any torrent sites. Such as Torrentz, Piratebay.org
Personally, I use Demonoid ( it is a private site so it is safer in some sense Ie. No Virus or spyware in the files)

Depends how good the torrent sites are, most of them will have ebooks category.

All you have to search for is the author, the tittle, or you can just put in the format.

*Mobi* or *epub* even kindle or ipad books/magazine.

You will get a whole list of books/magazine to download.
There are book libraries you can download.
YOU CAN REALLY GET A WHOLE LOAD OF BOOKS!

Once you have those books, you can use a book library software called Calibre (which is free) to organise and upload to your kindle or ipad!

Upload it into your Kindle or Ipad reader such as Ibook/Goodreader (recommended), and you are GOOD TO GO!

Enjoy Reading! Feel free to contact me if you have better ways of obtaining good books!
