Some, were definitely worthwhile, like 2/3 of the series of unfortunate events books... but I'm sure I have a lot of junk in there...

That's a lot of freebies.
There may not be an ideal solution. Amazon lets you delete only ten at a time, so at best it would be a work in progress. My suggestion would be draconian; get rid of anything you've never heard of. It will never be worth your time to click through each title to remind yourself why you got it on the first place. Keep the window open and chip away at it while you do other things, but it's not going to be a quick fix.
Or, since I see you're coming over to Kobo, go through the your Amazon library ONCE, send the absolute cream (again, only those titles you know already and know you'd like to read someday) to Kindle for PC (and seriously, we may be talking about only 1% of the freebies and realistically not much more than that), convert those books to ePub and move on. Do NOT stop to research titles. Draw a line under your Amazon library and learn your lesson.
I loved
The Series of Unfortunate Events books, too.
