Ideally a link to a pdf/epub torrent link
However, just a recommendation will do!

See, that term pedo gets thrown around a lot.
Is a 16 year old guy having sex w/a 16 year old girl a pedophile?
If not, then how is a 30 year old considered a pedophile for doing the same thing?
I think y'all need to look up the definition for pedophile.

-------------------- Alcoholics Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism.
The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking. There are no dues or fees for A.A. membership; we are self-supporting through our own contributions. A.A. is not allied with any sect, denomination, politics, organization or institution; does not wish to engage in any controversy; neither endorses nor opposes any causes. Our primary purpose is to stay sober and help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety.

What kind of shit are you into? I've spent most of the last couple years reading almost nothing but theology and philosophy, but I've been on a serious sci-fi bender recently.
I'll upload a dump of some suggestions in just a minute
How are you digging it so far? Got anything on there at all?

Small Gods, Terry Pratchett - Very humorous and entertaining short fiction based in Practhett's extensive Discworld series. I've really gotten into these books recently and Small Gods is probably my favorite so far. Very reminiscent of Douglas Adams.
Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy, Douglas Adams - A classic in the genre of fictional humor. The entire series if a must read but I just included the first to get you started.
Ender's Game, Orson Scott Card - I just discovered the Ender Saga about a week ago and I'm on the third book right now. Even though I'd heard great praise I wasn't really expecting much. I was stupid. These books are awesome. Very strongly thought provoking sci-fi. Probably the best fiction I've read since Dune.
Dune, Frank Herbert - The science fiction that changed the game for all science fiction. Dune is to sci-fi as Lord of The Rings is to fantasy. Once you discover Dune you'll never truly respect Star Wars ever again.
Game of Thrones, George R. R. Martin - Everybody's heard of it by now, although the real name of the series is A Song of Ice and Fire. Some seriously heavy shit. A fantastic work of literature and imagination. Extremely engaging storytelling. Once you get into it you'll be completely sucked into the universe for months and you'll even catch yourself thinking and speaking like characters in the books. It's awesome. Don't worry if you've already seen the tv series; not only is most of the story left out but a lot of it happens completely differently.
Also, this torrent http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/5818696/EPUB_Collection_%28108_Books%29 has a lot of classics and other recommended works that you can pick and choose through.
