That seems pretty clear to me: it says, in the part I've highlighted, that it's licensed "solely for your personal use". Where does it say that it's Ok to let other people have access to it?
My wife and I share our eBooks and Kindle Prime through Amazon. So Amazon is allowing us to share the eBooks we each have on our account. We can each pick a book from Kindle First Reads. So what you've copied from Amazon is WRONG because Amazon is allowing me to access her eBooks and she mine even though what you've pasted says otherwise. Oh and those T&C are invalid because Amazon has not ever made me agree to them or tried to make me read them. So I've never agreed and Amazon still allows me to buy eBooks.
