E-Books, best places to get them? (lemmy.world)

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!

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.

I use epub on mine, after downloading it from z-lib using my phone. Then I just send it to Kindle and have never had any issues.
