Heck I even had a book from Humble Bundle that threw flags on virus total some years ago.
I also collect user manuals for stuff, another area where you have to be careful.

I've never heard of any eBooks from Humble Bumble or the sites they use. That would have been a false positive.
Besides, you don't need a plugin to check your eBooks. Your AV should be checking them when downloaded.
