CC doesn't support uploading any information to calibre other than "read" and "date read". It also doesn't support uploading annotations stored by book reading apps.
Some people have solved this problem using Evernote, which can sync notes between devices and computers. It is a bit complicated to set up, but it works well once it is. The general idea is:
- install Evernote on your computer running calibre.
- in Evernote, create an evernote "note" for the book.
- in Evernote, copy the "link" for the note you just created (see below).
- in calibre, add the link (see below)
- install Evernote on your Fire.
There is a lot more information
in this thread in the calibre forum.
Regarding "adding the link in calibre": there are two choices. Which one you use depends on you. The first choice is to paste the link into a "comments" field, either the standard one or a custom column. The second choice is to use the new calibre custom identifiers facility to create an "evernote" identifier type. The custom column is the easiest to start with. Once you have added the note and copied the link, connect CC as a wireless device so that the link (now part of book metadata) is transferred to CC.
When you copy an Evernote link (in Evernote, right-click on a note and choose "Copy note link"), by default it gives you a link to the web interface. If you want a link to the local app (the above discussion assumes you do) then hold the CTRL key down when you copy the link.
