How might I transfer Kindle books to iBooks?

I have just purchased an iPad Mini, with the iBooks app. I have numerous books saved on my Amazon Kindle. I would like to know how to shift my books on Kindle to my iPad. Would it be as simple as downloading the Kindle app to my iPad? I have the amazon books saved on my PC, but I'm not sure if the file format is compatible. Any suggestions?


Thank you.

I have either the same problem or a very similar problem. I have several books that i've either read or am waiting to read on my Kindle.


I downloaded the Kindle app to my iPad and all the book covers show up. However, when I click on any of them, a blue gas gauge appears with the bar running from left to right. When the download is completed, if I click on the book, I get the following message...


Error

Please remove the book from your device and redownload it from your cloud items. If problem persists, try to DEregister your application and register again.


I should note that all my book titles only appear when Cloud is selected in my Kindle app. I don't remember setting up my cloud account to store my books. Is this a Amazon cloud storage area? Re the error message, what device am I supposed to remove the book from (ipad or Kindle). What does it mean by deregister? I have removed the Kindle app from my iPad and then downloaded it again to no avail.


And yes, I can still read all my books with my actual Kindle device.
