Oceanofpdf is God. You CANNOT change my mind.
I looked EVERYWHERE for tgcf volumes 5-8 but didn’t find them, the I remembered downloading some agatha Christie books from the site, and they WERE THERE. ALL OF THEM.
I repeat you CANNOT change my mind, Oceanofpdf is God.

Bibliophile
A person who loves books is called a bibliophile. The term comes from the Greek words biblio, meaning "book", and philos, meaning "friend". Bibliophiles are often known for having large collections of books, and enjoying browsing through libraries and used bookstores.
Other terms for a book lover include:
Bookworm: A person who loves and frequently reads or collects books
Bibliolater: A person who is overly devoted to books
Bookman: Another term for a person who loves books
Lectophile: A person who finds delight in the world of books and stories
Reader: A person who reads, especially for pleasure
One of my personal favourite author is Khaled Hosseini. His books The Kite Runner and The Mountains Echoed have touched my heart. If you like to read some of the books you can go to oceanwavepdf can download free PDFs.
Happy Reading!

Novel or Not? The Piracy Dilemma I Didn’t Choose
What are your thoughts on #oceanofpdf #glenwrites #penofglen #pdf #copyright #theft #booksworthreading #writingcommunity #writers #reading #book #books #readingcommunity #readersoftwitter #stealing #booktok #bookstagram #readers #advice #help #law #help
As an author, I’ve encountered a significant challenge that I feel compelled to share with you, my readers. It involves the website Oceanofpdf, which operates under the guise of a noble mission: to make knowledge and information freely accessible to everyone, particularly those in developing countries where books are scarce and libraries are distant dreams. On the surface, this mission resonates…

Talking to a gay man about prostitution, and his rhetoric was based in "i don't support immorality."
first of all babe, that's a lie, this same week you told me about having cunnilingus sex all cooked up while your guy was snorting off blow.
And even if you hadn't. ur gay. The world u lived in already deemed you as immoral before you could even do anything. Don't think for a second that calling others "immoral" would make you less of one in the eyes of those you're trying to please.
second, I don't care. Immorality and perversion from sex workers do not have to do with the exploitation of poor women, poc women and trans women, as well as queer folk and queer poc. It has way more to do with dehumanization and discrimination that stripes them out of their rights than how perverted they are, i swear to you.
third, everybody in the working class is selling off their body and their time and their force of work, for money. Everyone is putting their safety and their health and their dignity on the table, for survival. You're not more special or worthy than sexual workers.
And at last, you are wasting your time thinking of "your reputation" or "your life legacy". This is shallow and utterly superficial.
#i hope thats not a wild take yall#and these arent even deep elaborated takes on it. this just the surface of argumentation.#respect sex workers or perish#and gosh if u need academic sources. go read caliban and the witch. u can download it in oceanofpdf.#But also seriously start listening to sex workers on and offline.

okay i just read an INCREDIBLE apocalyptic/supernatural/religious horror novel with a trans gay male protagonist and incredible portrayals of religious trauma, body horror, and reclamation of your identity being seen as like, screwed up and disgusting. i know this isn’t the kind of thing you usually post about but it’s such a good damn book i had to recommend it. it’s called Hell Followed With Us by andrew joseph white. it made me sob at so many parts and it depicts found family queerness so well and has a canon autistic character and AUUUUHHHHHH it’s so good. if anyone wants to read it there’s a copy up on OceanOfPdf !!
That sounds awesome!!!
Here's the description from the author's website:
Sixteen-year-old trans boy Benji is on the run from the cult that raised him—the fundamentalist sect that unleashed Armageddon and decimated the world’s population. Desperately, he searches for a place where the cult can’t get their hands on him, or more importantly, on the bioweapon they infected him with. But when cornered by monsters born from the destruction, Benji is rescued by a group of teens from the local Acheson LGBTQ+ Center, affectionately known as the ALC. The ALC’s leader, Nick, is gorgeous, autistic, and a deadly shot, and he knows Benji’s darkest secret: the cult’s bioweapon is mutating him into a monster deadly enough to wipe humanity from the earth once and for all. Still, Nick offers Benji shelter among his ragtag group of queer teens, as long as Benji can control the monster and use its power to defend the ALC. Eager to belong, Benji accepts Nick’s terms…until he discovers the ALC’s mysterious leader has a hidden agenda, and more than a few secrets of his own.
Also look at this gorgeous cover:

being the crazy, mentally ill and horny one in my friend group, you'd expect me to find the weird shit on the internet but wdym my saint of a friend who uses her ring finger to flip people off found an ¿unofficial? book i think of the bee movie where the girl from the movie and the bee who's supposedly now an alien and way larger and can change its size came to Earth for breeding their species. Gets saved by the girl from ¿Ken? who tried to kill the 'bee' since he was allergic then she takes it home, and the rest is too graphic to describe. Btw this is what she told me so I have no ideas if this is right or wrong.
Hahahahahaha. (I'm gonna go read it now)
for any curious cookies out there, it's Bad Beehavior by G.M. Fairy on OceanofPDF
I could've lived my whole life without knowing this exists

i'm reading digital copies of your books from oceanofpdf and really struggling with not being able to highlight or copy sentences for later reference - the functionality is just kinda broken, because the text is somehow backwards on the backend but displayed correctly?? (i assume to avoid detection of copyright issues.) do you know if there are more functional PDFs available anywhere? thank you
libgen.rs
get the epub and use send to kindle to read it on the kindle app! it's way better functionality than a pdf.

I was searching for Greek Mythology Retellings on OceanofPDF out of curiosity and accidentally found an erotica, probably sci-fi novel. I haven't read it not I have the interest to do that in the future, but the description says that it's basically about the love story between a woman named Cassie and the Lord of the Sea.
I was thinking exactly about the thing you guys think I was thinking about.
#I mean... it doesn’t explicitly say that it's a retelling not inspired by Greek Mythology.#But if the author actually thought about Cassiopea and Poseidon while writing this then... 💀🔫#greek mythology#greek myth retellings#ramblings

Decision: gonna block people who ask for pirated danmei in the main tags. I've usually just rolled my eyes but that's cause it's usually people looking for the fantranslations, but I just saw someone lamenting that a danmei title isn't on Oceanofpdf (which pirates widely, including from my Press, and ignores any requests to take things down) and looking for a different similar place to pirate from and uh. Fuck you specifically, actually.

I looked for and collected plots of Piter in both Original Dune and Expanded Dune. Here’s the page number and keywords for each one.
The page numbers are only suitable for the PDF version. PDF can be found on this website :

cass, i've been following you for ages, and i wanted to let you know that seeing all your book posts has really made me want to get into the habit of reading more.
what ebook reader do you use? i have so many paperbacks i haven't touched, but i'm thinking to get an ereader so i can read what i haven't bought. rn i use my phone to read through hoopla, a library app, and sometimes the kindle app. ty for the oceanofpdf link btw! i read the book "half a soul" that someone recommended and i enjoyed it!
i really want to be able to read ebooks easier, but idk really know what i'm searching for yet so i'm open to any affordable options :)
HIIIII!!! i have a kindle and honestly it’s the best purchase Ive ever made 🥰 highly recommend !! the oceanofpdf site has been so good to me and it allows you to share the epub files to the kindle app so theyre very compatible in that sense!
i have the kindle paperwhite which is regular $159.99 CAD but i bought it on prime day last july bc it went on sale for like $114.99 CAD. ive heard the regular kindle is just as good though and it’s normally priced at $129.99 CAD but i believe last year during prime day it went on sale for around $89.99 CAD which is a fantastic deal. so just some food for thought in case ur considering it ❤️

Do you read paper books or do you prefer to read on screens?
Hmm, it kinda depends! My preferences and methods for this have sort of changed over the years. I normally do love to own and read a physical copy of a book, but lately I've mostly been reading books on my phone.
I'll just lay this all out very methodically (I'm sure you probably already know about many of these sites and methods of gathering books and such, but just in case you don't, here you go):
What I used to do back when I didn't read a whole lot (up until my mid-twenties I'd probably normally be reading less than 10 books a year): I'd just go to the local big chain bookstore in my town and buy my books brand new/order them online. My local library didn't have that great a selection, and I was also bad at returning my borrowed library books on time, so I'd usually just pick something out that looked interesting at the store instead and buy it brand new and hope that I liked it.
I very rarely do that anymore, mainly because I am constantly reading now, and it quickly gets expensive to buy that many new books. I also own quite a few books already, and books can get pretty annoying to lug around from place-to-place when you move, so I'm trying not to hoard as many of them anymore.
Here is what I do instead nowadays (I am in two book clubs now, so constantly reading something new, and have averaged reading 50-100 new books a year for the past half a decade or so)
FOR NOVELS: -I keep a list of all the books I want to read on GoodReads and also track all the ones I've already read there -I download a free sample of a new book I'm interested in on my phone, either by searching for it on Kindle/Amazon, or just by downloading the entire book as a pdf/epub file on my phone (here is an excellent site for finding pretty much any book as a pdf/epub for free, btw: [oceanofpdf]) -I read the first few pages of the downloaded book to see if it's something that I'd actually like (I can normally tell after about 5-10 minutes of reading if I'm gonna vibe with the writing style and the premise of the book) If it's something that I'm still interested in reading after previewing it, then I'll either:
(1) try to find a physical copy of the book at a local used bookstore or a thrift store (I don't mind paying a few bucks for a used paperback, even if I might not keep it forever or ever want to read it again) or: (2) search for the ebook on the Libby/Overdrive app on my phone that is synced up with my local library. (You can link your Libby account up with multiple library cards on the app, btw. I have a friend from a much bigger city with a much better library who shares their card with me, so I have access to all the books from their city's library as well... if your local library sucks then I def recommend sharing library cards with a friend from another city, if they're down with doing that) or: (3) just continue reading the book as the pdf/epub I already downloaded on my phone, if it was one that I downloaded from that site
FOR MANGA SERIES: I always either read them online by googling until I find a good quality scan on a site to read them on, or I check out the manga volumes electronically from my library. When it comes to these super lengthy comic series I definitely prefer not to buy the entire series to read it, unless it's something that is not overly long and also is a huge fave for me that I want to own (like Death Note, for example). I also find reading manga on my computer much more enjoyable than reading it on my phone because I can see the art better that way, so I keep a folder of bookmarks on my browser of the manga series that I am currently wanting to read, like so:
I will also usually open any manga I borrow from the library in Libby on my pc's browser instead of my phone so I can read it on a bigger screen, too. ONCE I'M FINISHED READING A BOOK: I will either keep it if I really liked it and think I'll want to re-read it someday, or I'll get rid of it! If it's one I read on my phone as a pdf/epub that I end up loving and wanting to add to my personal collection, then I will keep an eye out for it in the used bookstores and thrift stores, or I'll just buy it new! But nowadays I only add a book to my permanent collection after I have already read it and already know that it's something I will someday want to read again.
I get rid of the books I bought and read and don't want to hold onto anymore in those mini free libraries that people put on my local neighborhood street corners, or else I just donate them back to a thrift store for somebody else to enjoy. AN EXCEPTION TO THIS:
I will often also preemptively buy books that I know have been sitting on my "to be read" list forever whenever I come across them at a good price in a used bookstore, even if I'm not planning on immediately reading them. This is the stuff like the classics that everybody hears about growing up, but that I have not read for myself yet, and am curious to see what all the hype is about. Once I finally read them I'll either add them to my permanent collection or get rid of them if they really weren't my taste. Here's a picture of my bookshelf that's mostly the books I've accumulated second-hand over the years but haven't fully read yet. They're the ones that haven't quite made it to my permanent collection yet (not including the stuff in the picture like the box sets and the graphic novels/manga, which I already read and then bought new). I have another couple of full bookshelves' worth of books that I've already read and liked enough to keep, but they're all packed away in storage atm:
#ask#anon#books#p#and don't mind the crooked shelf there in the picture haha#that one's always being a drama queen and falling down on me#also sorry if you arent a fan of pirating n sharing library cards n whatnot please just look away if so#life is crazy expensive these days and i just want everybody to be able to read as much as their hearts desire#whether or not they have tons of cash or access to local resources
