The "Want to read this book on Kindle" feature
On the French Amazon store, when a book is not available on Kindle yet, you can click on a link that says "I would like to read this book on Kindle !" (I don't see it on amazon.com anymore by the way?). What I was wondering is, provided your logged into your account when clicking on the link, does Amazon send a mail to you if the book gets eventually published on Kindle, or do you have to regularly check the store ?

My experience with amazon.co.uk is that they don't contact you. But I have been pleasantly surprised by how many of the books where I clicked that did subsequently turn up as Kindle editions.

Too bad, I have asked for something like 10 books, I'm sure I won't remember all of them It would have been nice and in their own interest to at least give the "clicker" an option to be alerted by mail !
Thanks for the answer by the way |

Yes. It is there. I've used it recently.

I've noticed it's usually very effective if a book is on the Amazon.com Kindle Store, but not on Amazon.co.uk's Kindle Store.
