Unfortunately some Apps by default will try and install to SD card. Even if you don't have an SD card installed, the Edge's internal memory is divided (not evenly) into two portions, App memory and SD card (for Library content etc.). This is a well-known problem with the Ermine build for the Edge and keenyminot has an excellent thread discussing how to fix it. However, it requires the Edge to be rooted.

Here is a link to Kobo which I have installed on my Pocket Edge:

I downloaded the free Baby Names App from Amazon and can confirm it will not install.
