Can I send book from iPad to Kindle?

I bought novel for my new iPad and read it on iPad. Can I now give it to my husband so he can read it on his Kindle? In other words, can I send it to his Kindle? I am guessing answer is no but want to find out for sure. After all, if I buy a book at the store of course I could give it to him when I'm done as well as lots of others. Thanks!

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.4.9)

If you bought the book from the I store, then no. If you bought it through the kindle, he would have to sign into your kindle account.

Yes, however, you don't send it from your iPad. You send it from your *Manage the Kindle* page.
And can have your Kindle books on up to 6 devices at one time.

No, you can't share books between iBooks and Kindle. You may want to consider just buying for the Kindle if tiu want to share the same books. The Kindke app for the iOad is quite nice. Or buy your husband an iPad. 😉

I was wondering the same thing, my iPad is through my school and I will not have it during the summer. I own an old kindle, but I do not know what type. My family can't afford a iPad so I will lose the 253 books I have on it. I would love to transfer my books, from ibooks, to my kindle, if possible. Thanks!
