To place a book in the cloud on an Amazon Kindle, you can email the eBook (not purchased from Amazon) to your Kindle email address. This uploads the book to your Kindle cloud library, making it available on all your Kindle devices and apps. The file should be in a supported format like EPUB or PDF. You may need to convert it using software like Calibre if it's not in a supported format.
