I want to get back into reading, so I’m thinking of getting a Paperwhite. But I have no idea if it’s possible to transfer files to it from a computer, and I have no experience with pirating books.
Do I go to the same places I torrent movies and games or are there special places dedicated to E-Books?
EDIT: So many awesome answers on here! You guys have been very helpful. Thanks a lot!
Yeah, you can sideload pirate ebooks onto a Kindle. There are some restrictions with file formats, most people use Calibre if they run into issues with them. For ebooks I just grab mine from libgen most of the time.

I was thinking about epub support, but apparently they do now but dropped mobi support. I haven’t used a Kindle in awhile so no idea if there are any caveats. Here’s the full list for anyone interested:
Send to Kindle for Web
Send to Kindle from the Kindle App for iOS and Android Devices
Kindle Personal Documents Service
Send to Kindle Desktop Applications

Kindles only support AZW3 or MOBI. Converting isn’t a huge hassle (thanks Calibre)
Kindle no longer supports MOBI for their send to kindle feature (as of Nov 1). Not that it really matters, most people should be using EPUB nowadays anyways.
