So, I made a Kindle list and put it into Excel. You can get your Amazon content & devices history exported as a CSV file by going to your Amazon account, managing ‘Content & Devices’, then selecting ‘Books’ to filter by, and using the ‘Export to CSV’ button to get a file opened in Excel. I just added ‘Enslaved by The Ruthless Alpha King’ to my list of eBooks. This is a fantasy romance novel about a defiant human woman trying to survive against the monstrous and powerful Ruthless Alpha King who captured her. However, she can outsmart him, and this book is included in Kindle Unlimited, so it wasn’t an extra cost for me.

Here’s how I manage my Kindle library as a spreadsheet aficionado. I view all of my Kindle books on Amazon’s “Content and Devices” page. Then I manually enter the list in Excel (if it’s under 50 books or so). For larger libraries, there are browser extensions like Kindle Export that will scrape all of the information for you and save it to a CSV file.

Also, another trick of the trade is to sync your Kindle with Goodreads.com, then export your Goodreads library to CSV. Of course, this won’t pick up everything on your Kindle library, but for basic metadata, it’s really great. I mean, Amazon should just put an export button on the ‘Content and Devices’ page, but until then, this will have to do.

A friend of mine was wondering how to import her Kindle books into Excel and, after some browsing, we found a solution that works rather well. All Kindle books can be found on Amazon’s website under ‘Your Account’ > ‘Manage Your Content and Devices’. There you can select all books and copy the list to paste it into Excel (it needs some work in the columns, though).

Automating this process for you would involve using import functions like what LibraryThing does for Kindle books (then export to CSV). I've come across a few Python scripts that scrape your Kindle for metadata too (although I know that's well over the head of most people reading this). But for those who are able, it's worth looking into, too. I know I've gone to great lengths to get my Kindle books into spreadsheets because that's how I manage my reading.

I struggled to export my Kindle book list to Excel but then found a workaround. Go to Amazon.com > Content & Devices and view your books in that page. Select all using Ctrl+A and paste into your Excel spreadsheet. It’s a bit of a dog’s breakfast but you can then sort out the columns as needed. Later I downloaded Calibre (free) and added my Kindle books to it. I then exported my library as a CSV file which took about 10 minutes to do. It’s much better than the above method and I can now sort by genre or author, etc.

I have been buying lots of books on my Kindle since I got it, and they’re all sprawled out randomly on my shelves. I have managed to export my Kindle library to Excel in order to sort and organize them. First, I had to go to Amazon.com and log into my Amazon account. Then, I had to go to “Manage Your Content and Devices” and from there select “Books” and check all of the books that I wanted to add to my new list. Note: Amazon does not allow direct export to Excel but you can copy and paste the list to a spreadsheet.

After I imported my Kindle books into Calibre (the tool I use to manage eBooks), I exported the library list as a CSV file which opened perfectly in Excel. After some tweaking I managed to get all the metadata I needed into neat columns and even track my reading progress for each book. It looks really nice and I feel so satisfied that all my books are finally organized in one place.

How to export Goodreads list of books read to Excel?

I celebrate the export of my annual list of reads as if it were a digital holiday. After each year, I haul out my laptop, brew a cup of coffee and go through all the steps to get my data out. There’s a moment of切り替え or ‘-switching’ as I click the button to ‘export to CSV’ that feels like sending off a letter into the void. It takes a few days or even weeks to arrive in the form of an email which I then download as a .CSV file. Unpacking the CSV in Excel and/or constructing charts and/or making long lists to review my year of reading is more fun than Goodreads could ever provide for me in the way of reviewing the year that has passed. The few steps involved in manually exporting my reading data adds to the ‘occasion’-like feeling of going through them. Reclaiming one’s data, even in this rather basic form, is no mean feat.

One reason to export your notes is for writing book reviews. It’s easy enough for me to search for a quote to support a point I’m trying to make in a review and read the surrounding notes in a text file. The way I use highlights for writing book reviews is known as the “Bookcision” method. First you go to your notebook page for that book on Kindle. Then you click the Bookmarklet for Bookcision and it will present you with a very clean page showing all your highlights and notes, one per line. You then just copy that whole page and paste it into a Google Doc. I have a Doc for every book I review. So while this is not a feature natively provided by Kindle highlights, there are community developed solutions that fill this specific need for me and allow me to pursue my hobby of writing reviews of books.

How to transfer downloaded books from Amazon Kindle to PC?

This is super simple to do. Just Google ‘DeDRM tools Calibre’ and the first result should be a GitHub page for the plugin. Click to install and follow the instructions. Make sure your Kindle for PC app is authorized with your Amazon account. Download books to this app and then add the books from your Kindle’s data folder to Calibre (or connect your Kindle to your computer). The plugin will then strip the DRM from your books during the import process. From there you can right click on any book and change it to an EPUB file. You can then save this new EPUB file to anywhere on your computer. This whole process of transferring and converting your books is really quite simple, especially with a plugin doing all the hard work for you in the background.

What devices support kindle amazon kindle books?

8 Answers2025-06-03
One area Amazon doesn’t fully serve yet is in offline access to manage between devices. While a book that one downloads to their Kindle will automatically appear on their iPad or Touch, for example, a book one downloads to their Kindle does not automatically appear on their phone. This would use too much storage space on mobile devices, but Amazon could add an option to download to other devices as well, and have it apply offline as well. For now, users can manually download the same book on each of their devices (with or without wi-fi) as needed. For most people who are systematic in their reading and load up the next few titles on one device before switching to another, this works fine. But for spontaneous readers who switch between devices frequently and often lack reliable data access, there’s a need here for some way to enable downloading of titles to read offline on additional devices with a bit of up-front thought or planning.

How to download book from amazon kindle to a non-Kindle device?

I wanted to be able to read on my phone, but I didn’t want to be tied to my Kindle hardware. The Kindle app for your iOS or Android phone or tablet works really well. You need to have an Amazon account to log in to the app and download books that you have previously purchased. For new books, you can download them to read on your phone as well. I have even added borrowed books (from friends and from the library) to my phone. I use Calibre to convert the book to a MOBI file and then I email it to my Kindle address. One minor obstacle I faced was with books that had DRM. To get around this I occasionally use the ‘Unlock Ebook’ functionality within Epubor Ultimate (I’m very aware this is usually classed as copyright infringement, and thus use it sparingly). Otherwise it’s very easy to organize your books with tags. The ‘Send to Kindle’ functionality from desktop applications works very well for me with my academic PDFs, just check the supported file types on Amazon first.

How to read Kindle books without owning a Kindle?

Many people use sideloading to add content to their Kindles that is not sold by Amazon. You can email personal documents such as PDF and Word files to your Kindle email address. Files can also be added via the USB connection and copied into the Documents folder on the device. I use my Kindle to read work reports, academic papers and even fanfiction that I have written. In particular, it makes your Kindle app into a universal document viewer. While it may not display very complex PDF files optimally, documents with a lot of text are read perfectly using the reflowable text and reading features of your Kindle. Thus all your reading material is now located in one place.

How to transfer library ebooks for Kindle to my device?

I forgot to check whether the book I requested from the library was a PDF. Most PDFs don’t read very well on the Kindle – the text is typically too small and doesn’t reflow to fit the screen. You can “Send to Kindle” a PDF and choose whether to have it automatically converted by Amazon, or not. I’ve had the converted version be almost as bad as just reading the PDF on a tablet, but sometimes it works okay. The book is converted by Calibre to MOBI or AZW3 as well, but that is essentially random and depends on the quality of the PDF that was created. I would recommend just trying to read the PDF on your tablet. If you really want to read it on your Kindle, you could try sending it with “Convert” in the subject line of the email, and hopefully it will work out okay for you. A lot of library eBooks are PDFs of scanned book pages, so don’t read very well on any eReader.

Much confusion surrounds the term “Kindle” in relation to books but believe me it’s just a tag given to books in e-format. When checking out a book you will see the option to ‘Deliver to:’ and here you can select from any of your Kindle apps that you have registered on your amazon account i.e. ‘John’s iPhone’ or simply select the default Kindle app and the book will be sent to the ‘cloud’ to be downloaded at a later date by opening the relevant Kindle app on the chosen device. Very easy to do once you have done it.

Your archived items are also archived on your old device (even if you deleted them from your downloaded books list to make room). Now that you have a device with more storage, you might want to re-download some of these archived books. Make sure you’re viewing your library as ‘All’ or ‘Cloud’ and not just ‘Downloaded’. I discovered that I have a complete history of all my purchases over the last years, and can even re-download books I’ve purchased on sale years ago (I found three such books from 2017 that I had purchased but never read). Transferring to a new device became a fun library excavation.
