Thank you to author Patricia Fry for this tip on acquiring your e-book--even the promotions on Amazon's Kindle. And even when you need a copy for Nook or some other e-reader. It originally ran in my SharingwithWriters newsletter but I thought that some of my New Book Review readers might benefit from it, too.
Kindle Books for People Who Don’t Have Kindle
Did you know that you can buy your e-books from Kindle, even if you
don’t have a Kindle? Patricia Fry, founder of SPAWN says, “If you’re going to
order a book, just go to any Kindle book page and look for the buy options where
you can buy the book for your Kindle or send a gift to someone else's Kindle.
Just below that you'll see the link to the a Kindle app--inviting anyone
without a Kindle to download the app to any device they have. That app allows
you to get the book and read it—whether or not you have a Kindle. I believe
this shows up on any Amazon page where they are selling Kindle books.
