      Seconding Library Genesis. ZLibrary has a nice selection and all, but I’m kind of put off by how you need an account to access it. No such issues with LibGen.

        i was going for legal materials first. Not a fan of pirating books unless theyre corporate backed content such as college textbooks

          https://www.gutenberg.org/ Project Gutenberg has all legal materials. Consider it.

    Zlib is the best. The main site has been taken down though so you will need to use the darkweb site.

    This reddit thread says the onion link is: http://zlibrary24tuxziyiyfr7zd46ytefdqbqd2axkmxm4o5374ptpc52fad.onion/

    If one has an e-reader, standardebooks.org is an excellent place for English language texts.
