Sadly, the only way to achieve this efficiently, as far as I know (& I have looked far and wide for an answer) is to jailbreak the device. Then Calibre, Kindle Collections & a plugin like Library Sync make it an absolute dream.
I would love to get the new Oasis - would buy it in a heartbeat - IF it could be jailbroken. But I won't. Because I want to manage my library in an efficient manner!
Yes I know books can be emailed to my account but, apart from wading through endless pages online for eleventy billion books, I also use Calibre's plugboards to help manage my library & don't want to lose that functionality.
Perhaps what really drives me nuts is Amazon's approach, which I believe Kovid termed 'the boiling frog' approach. That is, step by step, functionality we had access to is being sealed off from us. Perhaps if it had been sandboxed from the start it wouldn't be so aggravated, but to go from having an efficient way to manage Collections on earlier Kindles (using Calibre & Kindle Collections plugin) to losing that for a much, much more cumbersome system is really infuriating.
Oops, didn't mean to rant. And sorry I can't help with your query - I totally empathise, I went through the same thing. Here's really, really hoping that the awesome folks here at MR are able to jailbreak the latest FW at some point, because then that Oasis will be straight in my shopping cart
