That you may have made on those two, if even by accident.

At least some of those things are stored in that part of the user's data areas that you can't see over the USB cord.
Hmm, maybe, but it doesn't explain why I get three different outcomes from five books.

In all five books I highlighted typos, bookmarked the pages, and then fixed them in the originals. I didn't delete the highlights, but I deleted the bookmarks as I went through the original.

I just tried reloading the books. They didn't show up as "new" after reloading, and when I searched for them, their covers were displayed correctly. I selected "see all" and got a list of three books: #1, #2, and #6. Neither of #1 or #2 contained any bookmarks or highlighting. I deleted #1 and #2, but neither title disappeared from the book list. Going back to the home page and repeating the search still shows the books as being there, but this time the covers are displayed correctly. They still come up as "Item Not Available" if I try to open them, though.

I was hoping there might be some sort of cleanup tool somewhere in the Kindle itself that I wasn't aware of. Or wouldn't it be nice if there was a "cleanup" option in the "Item Not Available" dialog. Oh well. it looks more and more like I'm just going to have to reformat the damned device and reload my entire collection of 2000+ books just to get rid of these ghosts.
