Hi! I selected a book, Superhighway, that's given in an Amazon giveaway, but the giveaway is over now and so costs money. How can I get a copy? Thanks!

I still can't open the book I downloaded. I'm a new user, today is the last day to update saying that you have succesfully downloaded the books and this is the only place where I can ask for help, but no one is answering on this forum. I chose mobi, I did all the 3 steps and used 2 different devices and it is still not working.

I have Windows 10 on my laptop. I have downloaded the Kindle app and it won't load. I am trying to view a .mobi file and I can't access it from the downloads nor through the unresponsive Kindle app.

I tried this and nothing happened, I am currently using my kindle tablet. This is my first time trying to review a book on here and it's not even letting me read it.

Hi Scott!

I would like to thank you for giving me the chance to review the book of the month. Sad to say, Kindle is not available in Saudi Arabia. I know it's available in the Philippines but my contract here will finish on February 14, 2018.

I would like to inform you that I was not able to download the book because of its unavailability.

I hope you will give me a chance to review in my country soon.

More power to you and this community!

I downloaded Brutal Valour in pdf format and have read most of the book. Unfortunately, when I returned to it today, the book was simply not there. I am not sure what happened, since the file was there every time I opened it until now. Should I re-download the book? This is rather frustrating, since I planned to complete Brutal Valour today and work on the review.

Thank you for your advice!

I quoted this because I forgot to tag @Scott
30th Century:Escape is posted on my RT review page dated November 27, 2017 (yesterday) that I had successfully downloaded the book.

I was not able to get a copy because of the unavailability of Amazon Kindle in Saudi Arabia as I had said.

Please help me update that RT review page as I have no edit option to put any mark that would identify that I tried my best but was unable to get a copy of that book and I have no other option to have that book reviewed.

Please reply soon.

This should be submitted this as an error report through the Review Team Page. You also should quit the book via the same page.

The "report an error" keeps on pointing me here in this page. I have no other options. Even the "update tab" is taking me here.

You have to specify the error and answer those 5 questions asked by Scott on the first comment of this thread.
