Realized my family was spending more than $200/mo on streaming and other media sources. Been a while, but I’m sailing the high seas again. Ethically, I agree with “Piracy.” Fuck Disney with a cactus. Functionally, it’s a service problem for me.
Currently running Readarr, Calibre, Sabnzbd, Qbittorrent. Have Drunkenslug, NZBgeek, 1337x, TPB as indexers.
My results aren’t great for books. Lot of titles aren’t automatically found. Readarr and Calibre integration is janky. My indexers don’t have a lot of titles.
I can manually search on Anna’s Archive or Libgen and find what I want. However, for the rest of my family to really use it, it needs to be easy like the rest of my setup.

Can someone please recommend a toolchain for automated book grabbing?
I don’t mind spending a few bucks a month/year for quality and ease of use.
Automated book grabbing is very hard imo. I’ve tried readarr and a bunch of other things. I settled on just manually downloading what I want and sending to kindle. There isn’t going to be a good automated setup until indexers get better for ebooks or readarr somehow adds support for irc downloads.
