standardebooks.org is a project to properly format public domain eBooks so they look good and work well on modern e-readers

@noiob im so glad this exists lmao

part of why i really disliked using gutenberg's releases is because of all the problems that this project fixes

@noiob each book has a specially written blurb to describe it and give a plot synopsis too

that is. genuinely really bloody good, considering gutenberg just kind of assumes you already know the book

Follow

@avie yeah, and I love that they even go the extra mile of adding a nice cover
