It's the TT tags she uses the Kindle doesn't like them.

I have patiently waited for updated copies of these books then tonight discovered this it just made me very frustrated. I want to support authors who publish their backlists but if I keep seeing this done I may have to go back to spending my money on trusted publishers.

I have no problem with an author updating their ebook to make it better, adding a pretty cover and even retitling it but changing the ASIN is just wrong. This is the third time I had an author do this but this is the first time it was an author who I bought all their books trying to support their effort.

I got seriously burned buying from Smashwords from authors who removed their titles for KDP Select then posted better versions on Amazon but this author did both then took it a step further.
