Purchasing an E-book on Amazon

As an avid reader and a proud alum of the University of Toronto, receiving an email about their new online book club piqued my interest.

I quickly signed up to participate and created my profile.

The first book we’ll be discussing is Talking to Strangers written by international best-selling author and fellow U of T alum, Malcolm Gladwell.

Since I sell my e-short stories on Amazon, I thought I’d show you how easy it is to add to your library with their one-click purchasing.


The Details:

  1. Navigate to your Amazon marketplace (I’m Canadian and I prefer to pay in Canadian currency, so my marketplace is Amazon.ca)
  2. Sign in to your account
    Sign in, Amazon
  3. Have you received an Amazon gift card? You can add it as a payment option and/or ensure that your payment information is up to date in ‘Your Account’
    a. Your account
    b. Your account Amazon

  4. Search for the Kindle edition/e-book you’d like to purchase and click the ‘Buy Now with 1 Click’ button
    Talking to Strangers
  5. Click ‘Place your order’
    Place your order
  6. “+Follow” the author to receive notifications
    Follow the author
  7. Navigate to your Kindle app on your desired device and download your new e-book to your library

Happy reading!

Give life the green light. It’s A Go!

  1. So impressed with post. Especially for some of us not so techi people 😱. You lay it out very well, easy to understand and follow. It has made me more excited about taking on this new challenge 👍. Happy reading 📖😊

  2. Regarding your “digital keepsake post”. Again as someone who does not feel comfortable at my age taking on another new challenge, you have given me an opportunity to explore a new type of birthday greeting card or keepsake memories. Thanks for another lesson 👍
