The same goes for laws which try to prevent sharing among friends (which the doubleplusgoodthinking party members refer to as murder, assault and grand theft on the high seas).
To answer your question, I would convert the books you have to an open, transparent format (like FB2) which allows you to see exactly what is in the file you want to share.
Don't be discouraged by some of the reactions here. That is to be expected. I assure you that all of the self-righteous folks who preach compliance with immoral laws also have their copied books, mp3 files, movies, etc
Lastly, resistance is not futile - just check out these folks. There are "pirate" parties formed all over the world and, sooner or later, these stupid and immoral laws will go the way of all stupid and immoral laws. 
You can find a primer on this important topic here and here.
Bottom line: don't ever let the greed of some prevent you from doing the right thing!
