On second thought, probably not a good idea.

### Feature request

This feature proposes adding a new dataset builder called bookfolder to the datasets library. This builder would allow users to easily load datasets consisting of various digital book formats, including: AZW, AZW3, CB7, CBR, CBT, CBZ, EPUB, MOBI, and PDF.

### Motivation

Currently, loading datasets of these digital book files requires manual effort. This would also lower the barrier to entry for working with these formats, enabling more diverse and interesting datasets to be used within the Hugging Face ecosystem.

### Your contribution

This feature is rather simple as it will be based on the folder-based builder, similar to imagefolder. I'm willing to contribute to this feature by submitting a PR
