This was one of the main reasons I use dropbox on my phone. I use dropbox offline files to sync my ebook collection to my phone;I get a book, I copy to the dropbox folder folder any of my other devices, and it 'magically' appears in my local ereader. 

 

This behaviour worked particularly well for some ebooks I read that are still in development - the author updates their shared folder and my version of the book is updated with the latest chapters.
