There have been lots of comments about books missing in the library. But, have they disappeared from the devices? Or the apps or desktop applications. As far as I can tell, I haven't lost anything anywhere. The new list says 338 books plus 14 previews, the device also says 338 books (none show as not downloaded) and 16 previews. But, there only 9 previews on the device.
The old list doesn't help. That says I have 351 books in "I'm reading". These will include previews. And 312 books in "Purchased". Other than the previews, I'm not sure what the differences are. But, I can see at least one book in the "I'm reading" list that is not in the "Purchased" which is no longer sold by Kobo and that I think was a freebie. That would account for some. Looking at a few more, I think Kobo has changed how they handle freebies. Some of the older appear to be in the purchased lists, but the newer ones aren't. My guess is that at one time they treated them as a purchase, but now don't.
For the mismatch in previews, it seems to be a combination of books Kobo no longer sells and previews of books I have bought. The latter is confused a little more as in at least one case, I added the preview of one version of a book, but bought a different one. In this case, it seems to have been smart enough to remove the preview from the device, or maybe not download it to a new device, but not smart enough to remove it from my library.
From all this, I am reasonably confident I am not missing any books anywhere. But, I wasn't one of the people who came from Sony or elsewhere. For those who are missing books in the new library, are you missing them from the device or app?
