How to read books for Free

Okay, let's say my friend suggested me to read XYZ book, but like always I wouldn't want to buy it. So, How would I read the book?

First I would go to Z-library through the APK that I have for android or the dark web version of it.

Second, I would look at Library Genesis and Pdfdrive.

Third, I would search at 1337x.to or the pirate bay.

If the situation is dire were I can't find the book in any of these sources, I would also google:

The code:

"XYZ" filetype:pdf

Note: XYZ = the name of the book

If you are lucky you might get the readily downloadable pdf version of the book(XYZ).

More extreme: Search in Reddit Discussions and Threads.

You might always come across nice guys, who have uploaded the pdf version of the book to their drive, and you can access it simply using a link.

Besides this if you have a friend who already owns the book. You can simply lend it for a day and scan it using Adobe Scan. If you have access to library, you can also search for the book and do the same.

If you are recreational reader, who just wants to read anything that you find interesting, you can make an Amazon account and search Free books in the serach bar. You'll find a lot of popular books. I have owned books like 1984, The Art of War, through this method.

If you have any further querries regarding this. You can comment on the blog, and I'll surely reply. and if you know me personally, don't hesitate to ask.

A small back story. There was a site z-lib.org, which is basically z-library. It used to be legal and freely available about 2 years ago. This site was basically a heaven for readers, where anyone could download unlimited number of books from infinite sources for free. However, this site has been seized by law enforcement agencies.

I personally believe that there shouldn't be any kind of limitations to reading. It's already difficult to make up the mind to start reading, and further making it even more difficult to access the books is diabolic. This is my effort to make sure everyone has equal access to books.

Reading book has given me a sense of character, unique sense of identity, mentorship, and wisdom, which has helped me a lot in my life. That's why I encourage everyone to read books.

Readers are Leaders.
