    Just use your local library and get all the books you want for free and in the most legit way possible. No idea why you feel the need to pirate books.

        That may be true but until a better solution for ebook lending exists, libraries in their current form using Libby / Overdrive is still an enormous public benefit and is a direct service from local taxes that benefits humanity.

        I don’t agree with Overdrive’s practices but I absolutely don’t hold libraries accountable for that because they can’t control what the market offers.

      My library makes people use shitty apps for ebooks and audiobooks instead of using whatever reader/player you want

      Problem is the wait lists. Cosmere books in my area are on an approximate 18wk wait. Audiobooks nearly double.
