You can narrow results by categories by clicking on the drop-down list located in the upper right corner of the Search Results
page.
Tip: You can also narrow a search in the Kindle Store to an author's name by typing "@author" followed by the author's
name. For example, to search the Kindle Store for books by Agatha Christie, enter "@author Agatha Christie" in the Search
line. This will narrow your Kindle Store search to find only books written by Agatha Christie.
CHAPTER 5
The Kindle Store
The Kindle Store is the place to purchase titles such as Kindle books, audiobooks, newspapers, magazines, and blogs. Find an
item in the store, select "Buy," and you will typically receive your item wirelessly in under a minute. All of your Kindle
purchases use Amazon 1-Click for easy purchasing and Amazon automatically backs up all of your purchases and the most
recent issues of your periodicals in case you lose your Kindle or want to download a title again. To help other Amazon users
decide what to buy, you can also add your own ratings and reviews.
