Can somebody answer this question? In the sentence: " I ordered a book from the bookstore" Is " the bookstore " considered as an indirect object? If not, can you give me othere examples for "order" with two objects.

Eliot is right 'from the bookshop' is an adverb prepositional phrase which tells us where the subject ordered the book. An example with two objects would be. 'I ordered the book for my mother'. Indirect objects usually tell us 'to or for' whom the action of the verb is done.

No, it is not an indirect object. We call it "a prepositional phrase indicating origin".
