libgen for books. The pirate bay theoretically covers everything, but good luck finding books there.

Libgen is great for older literature and non-fiction books of all kinds, but for modern fiction it sucks.

Really? What have you struggled to find? I've found libgen enormously helpful.

Maybe it's just my pop fiction preferences but if I search for any sort of modern horror or sci fi fiction, I just can't seem to find any content. Pirate bay on the other hand? No problem. Like I said though, almost any modern non fiction and a great deal of older fiction literature is definitely there, so I'm definitely not criticizing libgen. It's mostly wonderful, though one worries about malware luring in downloads, but on this maybe im just being paranoid.

Besides TPB, is there a libgen for audiobooks? Audible blocks lots of books here and the prices are honestly quite steep. TPB often doesn't have what I was looking for, not even something obscure.

Not actually a joke: audiobookbay.ws
