    Help Source for autobiography ebooks/pdf

    As per title really, just got into reading books on my iPod 4g after running out of space to buy any more proper books, but can't for the life of me find anywhere that has a decent selection of autobiographies - they all seem to be fiction.

    I have tried the daily "ebook floods" on usenet and a few torrent sites, but they all seem to have the same fiction selection, and in the case of the ebook floods I can't even find a list to search to see what day I should be looking in, so it's a needle in a haystack before I have started.

    I have tried looking at the release dates of a few books I wanted, and checking the corresponding date in the ebook floods, but no go - tried about a week either side of the official release date too.

    Any help appreciated.

    have you tried looking just for the book you want on somewhere like binsearch? other than that id check bolt.cd they have a reading/listening section that usually has loads of non-fiction

    Thanks to casio

    I find kat.ph a good torrent source for books, esp. if they are new releases in the New York Times bestsellers list. If I can't find it there I go to demonoid too.

    Cheers guys, and yeah I have found a few searching individual titles on usenet/torrents and some frugal google searching, but noticed that most of the books are all fiction and romance etc and I only really read autobiographies, which there isn't a specific section for (at least on newzbin)

    ilscuro that would be cool mate if you could sort me an invite to demonoid, much appreciated!
    Will PM you my email address.

    Mirc is sometimes a good source for ebooks. I sometimes pop on there and grab some. Check out chanel ebooks on irc.highway.net. Give me a shout if you haven't a clue about mirc and I'll try and help out if your get stuck.
