As someone who’s been using Kindle for years, I’ve encountered this issue a few times, and it’s usually tied to licensing or sync problems. Sometimes, books vanish if the publisher revokes distribution rights or if there’s a regional restriction—like when a title isn’t available in your country anymore.
Another common culprit is Amazon’s 'Manage Your Content' settings. If you’ve filtered your library to show only downloaded books or titles from a specific device, missing books might just be hidden. Check your archive or cloud storage, too. Occasionally, a glitch during syncing can make books disappear temporarily, but a manual sync or restarting the app often brings them back. It’s frustrating, but rarely permanent.

I noticed my Kindle library had gaps, and after digging, I realized it was because I’d borrowed some books through Kindle Unlimited or Prime Reading. When the subscription expired or the titles rotated out, they vanished from my library. Free promotional books can also disappear if the offer ends.
Another sneaky reason? Family sharing settings. If someone in my household removed a shared book, it poofed from my device too. Always double-check purchase history—sometimes books are refunded or canceled without notice, leaving your library lighter.

From my experience, missing Kindle books often stem from accidental actions. Maybe you clicked 'Remove from Device' instead of 'Delete Forever,' making the book still exist in your account but not on the current device.
Also, if you switch Amazon marketplaces (like from .com to .co.uk), some books won’t carry over due to regional licensing. A quick fix is to ensure you’re logged into the correct marketplace and sync again.

I freaked out when half my library disappeared until I learned about the 'Archived Items' tab. Some books auto-archive to declutter your main view, especially older purchases or samples.
Another headache? DRM issues. If a book’s license file gets corrupted, it might not display until you re-download it. Always keep your Kindle software updated—older versions sometimes struggle with newer book formats or encryption.

Missing books drove me nuts until I figured out it was a storage issue. My Kindle was full, so newer downloads replaced older ones without warning. Cloud storage shows everything, but the device only keeps what fits.
Also, check if you’re using multiple Amazon accounts—like one for work and one personal. Books won’t mix across accounts, so you might’ve bought them under a different login.

As someone who borrows Kindle books from the library all the time, I can walk you through the process step by step. First, you'll need a library card and an Amazon account linked to your Kindle. Go to your library's website and search for eBooks, then filter for Kindle formats. Once you find a book you like, select 'Borrow' and choose your loan period.

If not, go to 'Manage Your Content and Devices' on Amazon, find the book, and click 'Deliver to Device.' Some libraries also use Libby or OverDrive—just follow the prompts to send to Kindle.

How To Sync Kindle Library With Kindle For Pc App?

As someone who juggles between devices, I’ve found syncing my Kindle library with the PC app super handy. First, ensure you’re signed into the same Amazon account on both your Kindle and the PC app. Open the Kindle for PC app, and it should automatically start syncing your library. If it doesn’t, click the 'Sync' button usually found in the toolbar. Sometimes, I notice delays due to slow internet, so patience is key. For books not appearing, check 'Manage Your Content and Devices' on Amazon’s website. Ensure the books are properly assigned to your account. I’ve had issues where purchases were under a different household member’s account. Also, make sure the PC app is updated—older versions can glitch. A trick I use is to manually download books from the 'Cloud' tab in the app if auto-sync fails. It’s a bit more work, but it gets the job done.

Organizing my library in the Kindle app has been a game-changer for me. I started by creating collections based on genres like 'Fantasy', 'Mystery', and 'Romance'. This way, I can easily find books that match my mood. I also label collections for 'To-Read', 'Currently Reading', and 'Finished' to keep track of my progress. Another tip I found useful is sorting books by author or series, especially when I’m binge-reading a particular writer. The search bar is a lifesaver when I’m looking for something specific. I also make sure to download only the books I’m currently reading to avoid clutter. It’s a simple system, but it keeps my library neat and accessible.
