Yes DOT can read books.  Cannot post Amazon links as it is a "retail" site.

 

Detailed instructions on Amazon's DOT's troubleshooting web site.

Or you can Google amazon dot reads books and you will get over 4 million hits. Smiley LOL

You have to buy books that are readable.  Not all are.

I have digital books that I purchased from Amazon pre-Alexa on my Fire Tablet and all I have to do is say "Alexa read Cokie Roberts Capital Dames" and she reads it to me.

 

If you want a celebrity or author to read the book, you have to buy the book version called Audible or upgrade the book you have to the Audible version.
