Welcome silverone!
Don't be so quick to decide on a Mini! Most of us prefer the jetBook Lite for the same $99.99 price.
When you get your device, I suggest that you practice with the MobileRead library because the books are free.
The JBL reads both ePub and mobi formats (among many others). So you would choose a book in one of those formats. Double click in the box at the bottom of the first post in the thread, and the file will download onto your computer.
All of us buy an SD card and an SD card reader. So copy the file onto the SD card. Then insert the SD card into the JBL and you are set.
The Mini only reads txt and fb2 formats for the time being. For the Mini, you would first download the calibre program. See the calibre forum here for that.
Then take your mobi or ePub file that you have downloaded and use calibre to convert it to fb2. Then move the fb2 file onto the SD card, and insert the card into the Mini.
I'm about the least geekiest guy here, so others may be able to explain it better than I have just done.
Go to newegg.com to see the $99.99 JBL.
