Got my girl a kubo because I heard they were better than the kindle, and fuck Amazon anyways. But the book pickings have been slim, and the library integration isn't adding much.

I'd like to add to her selection without making it more difficult

Edit: oops, kobo

Anna's Archive has basically everything, though it may take a few weeks for new releases to appear there. In that case, a private tracker like iptorrents is going to be where it's at.

Download Calibre on your computer. Once you have the book add it into Calibre.

Connect the Kobo to the computer. Once it connects, drag and drop the files over from the Calibre interface.

That's it!

The other option is using Calibre web instead, but that does take a little configuring. I'd consider my method above a good way "to add to her selection without making it more difficult."
