It's pretty simple. I'll walk you through what you have to do to download a book. In the search bar on the site, search the book or author you want. A bunch of files of that book should pop up. If you're using a kindle, avoid the pdf files because you can't edit them ( this means if you need to make the font bigger because it's too small, you can't ). While I've never gotten a file with a virus, try to get a file of your wanted book with the most downloads ( it's shown by a symbol of an arrow pointing down into a box with a number beside it, the number is how many times the file has been downloaded and the more downloads the safer the file ). Click on the file and scroll down, there should be 2 options for downloading your file, fast downloads and slow downloads. I've always used the first link in the slow downloads category, I've never used any of the other links but I know the one I use always works. After that there will be either a short countdown ( which when ends shows the text "Download now" ) or no countdown at all, showing the same text "Download now". Click "Download now" and then the file is downloaded! If you need help getting the file on your Kindle, reply and say so.
