Just found this thread and now I'll give it another try.

Look at the first screenshot. It says: Docs (3).

These books have been in the Docs-category.

(Basically, Collections, Clippings, Kindlets (apps) & Booklets (super-apps) are special types of items, and may or may not appear as you would expect depending on which filter you're using on the Homescreen).
The second screenshot should just show, that no "personal"-badge was applied to the sideloaded book.

This worked yesterday, now it doesn't.

This post confuses me even more.

What matters is the internal metadata tag. The advise to use [EBOK] as the Personal Doc Tag is wrong, in the sense that whatever that tag is set to the output is PDOC if that tag is present in the ebook entry. So [EBOK] only works because you don't have [EBOK] as a tag. The best way to get an ebook into the Books app is to set Preferences => Conversion => Output Options => Mobi Output => Personal Doc Tag to blank (empty) and do a MOBI to MOBI conversion.
I just kept [PDOC] and did a MOBI to MOBI - conversion, still no result.
