Kathy G. | 1931 comments How you do you find out how many pages a Kindle book has--- When the Kindle site says 652KB--- what does that mean???


message 204: by Dee (new)

Dee (austhokie) | 8947 comments I normally look at the publishers website - sometimes they'll list word counts, or range that a certain book falls in (novella, novel etc)...but there doesn't seem to be a magic kB to page conversion that i've found yet


message 205: by Kathy G. (new)

Kathy G. | 1931 comments Okay---- I find the books you pay for state the page number, but the free ones don't see to have the page number.

Plus, how would you verify --- say-- a book from Project Gutenburg? It's all very confusing since the classic, older books---- well, there are so many forms, and reprints, and it's very confusing.
