Did Amazon get rid of this feature? I'm trying to find out the word length of some books and an older thread here keyed me in to this feature, but it seems Amazon no longer supports it.

Yeah, I had been looking for that a couple weeks ago, and noticed it was gone as well. Guess they got rid of it.

Scroll down to "Inside This Book" Header (it's almost towards the bottom of the page) and there's a "Text Stats" link there. Click it and it will give you the book's word count and even Readability index scores along with some other stats.

Edited to add: not all books on Amazon seem to have this feature.

Thanks. Looks like some books have that and others don't. Even ones with the "look inside this book" advertisement.
