Kindle ebook wish lists...
Sorry if this is a dupe... I read on the Kindle blog that you can now put Kindle books in your Amazon wish list. Well, it's about time. Apparently you still can't gift a Kindle ebook to someone yet.

Not to sound stupid but I was already doing that or maybe I wasn't. All the books on my Wish List are Kindle versions. Am I missing something?

No not the Universal Wishlist, I guess the regular Wish List? I would go to the Kindle version of the book, look at the customer reviews and it would give me the option of adding it to my Wish List. Now I see instead of having to go to the customer reviews FIRST and adding from that page, now they have a Add to Wish List button right on the same page as the book information. I hope I answered your question pilotbob.

You can now see your wishlists (all of them) from the Kindle Store - it picks out the Kindle books in each one. Anything you had in Save For Later is now on a list called Kindle Wish List.

Thank you Karen!
I know this post is
![]() Karen: Two things - this is long overdue as I have been meaning to say a big fat THANK YOU to you for your blog. I must go to that site at least 10 times a day to see if there are any updates. You do a great job and I just wanted to say thank you so much for Books on the Knob. I recommend it to anyone I know that has a Kindle. I have you to personally thank for my ever growing TBR list (not a bad problem to have). ![]() Secondly, heard your interview on Kindle Chronicles and it was extremely informative. Lots of good things that I didn't know so again another thank you. You have truly increased my own Kindle experience. I didn't see a way to send you a personal message on your blog (might have not been looking properly) so when I saw your handle here today just wanted to send you some luv! Your work is much appreciated! ![]() |

Mike L, that's also how I use the wishlist. I don't always buy a book as soon as I see it, and instead I put it in my wishlist. Then I'll often go back later and buy a book I've previously put on my wishlist.

My idea of wishlists is the same as yours BOb, if I add something there it is usually just to give my family or friends ideas of what they could get me. |

That said, I agree with your more general point about not being able to buy wish-list items as gifts. |
