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.

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

That’s not their fault. Libby / overdrive is what the market offers. If a library wants to loan digital books, that’s the answer. This is a competition and marketplace and monopoly problem. Not a library problem.

I wasn't assigning blame, I was just giving a reason some don't want to use the library offerings
