The Amazon button works just fine for the Kindle edition. As the author, you have the ability to change which edition of the book is the default. Here's how: https://www.goodreads.com/help/show/3...

Great, thank you!

I didn't think about checking those links before. Mine are working. This is valuable info. Thank you.
Something else I discovered, now that I've done some digging: in your book's description on Goodreads, you can include the AISN (for both the e-book version and the paperback, interestingly) and doing so automatically link each separate version (e-book and paperback) to their appropriate Amazon pages. Simply click "edit details" on your book's Goodreads page to enter the info. I originally had the ISBN listed for my paperback book on Goodreads, which didn't trigger a link.
Hope that helps anyone else who's having the same issue!
Paperbacks should have ISBNs listed, not ASINs. I corrected that one, but if you need help with any others, the best place to post is the Librarians Group.
