Is there any way I can promote my recently published ebook here without a) contravening the rules of Wizzley and b) seeming kind of tasteless in doing so? I would welcome suggestions and tips. I am looking for ways to let people know about it but I'm leery of the whole process.
Maybe you could ask someone here to review it for you?
You know, that's not a bad idea!
If a person has a book you are selling through Amazon, a Wizzle on a related topic would allow you to sell a book using the Amazon module. This would not be an ad for the book, but could get it noticed. I believe this would be an acceptable mechanism. Of course the book should not violate content rules, so if it is on a banned subject I would not do so.
I have a Wizzle promoting one of my books at https://wizzley.com/mathematics-help-for-those-intimidated/. I do not believe I said it is my book, which is unnecessary to include. A self help math book is within the allowable topics, so I have had no problem.
It's a good thought but sadly I didn't publish it through Amazon. It's only a coobkook so it wouldn't violate the rules except by my self-promotion. It was mostly the rule about no excessive advertising content that I was concerned about.
Amazon has something called Create Space where you can publish a physical book. The rights are not exclusive. There are rules for pricing, and I believe you cannot sell lower than you do on Create Space. The book costs nothing unless you count the copyright and the copy needed for proofing. They did not even require me to proof my last book, so the cost wend down. Then it can show up whenever you have a related Wizzle.
I haven't been a member long enough to know all of the ettiquette; I can say I appreciate the consideration, that I am interested in your ebook (my nephew is a chef, so it could be a potential gift for him), I am happy to post it on my Twitter and Pinterest if you want to send me the link.

Review article is the best idea, in my opinion. Let me know if you still need a "taker"
