Drawbacks:
1. As the name implies, this is pretty basic stuff, similar to the old Kindle app that runs on the NST in terms of bells and whistles (i.e., none).
2. It is intended for totally online (data) use so you have to make the effort to download a book for offline use. Otherwise it only exists in the ether. Works fine, but it's not automatic. Dictionaries, also, can be downloaded for offline use.
3. It will not recognize side-loaded books (*.mobi, *.azw, etc.).
It does work with Kindle library books and shows up on your Amazon account as a target device.
There are newer versions (maybe better for you), but you might start with 1.9:

This looked promising, but proved to be a no-go. If I install an older version, as soon as I open the app, a window pops up telling me to upgrade to the newest version. I cannot close the window or use the app. When I try the latest version, it will not even install on my GL4!
Edit: I finally found a 1.17 version apk on another site that installed on my GL4. When I ran that, I got a message telling me that this app is no longer in use and that I should download the Kindle app. End of wild goose chase!!!
