Although I've never used this feature on the Echo or in the Alexa app, I went into my Alexa app on my iPhone and looked at the list of my books that are supported as well as the list that are not supported. The app can view your Kindle books lists. I see no personal documents in either the supported are not supported lists. I see only Kindle books. So my guess is that Alexa cannot read documents, which in my case equals deDRMed and modified Kindle purchased books as well as personal documents I converted to Kindle format. The Alexa app cannot see them, so it cannot read them as far as I can tell.
