How did you track the conversion on this? “Lastly, I created some simple Facebook Ads and spent $5 a day advertising the book. For every $5 I spent, I got 1.5 sales on average. Just enough money to get close to breaking even.”

It was my only marketing, so I looked each day at pre-orders inside my KDP dashboard and compared it to the Ad Spend. Had basically no audience and starting from scratch so I assumed all of the sales were from the ads. It's possible 10% weren't, but definitely nearly all were. Wish amazon had better attribution, but another reason for pixeling up and selling through Shopify
