No, it is simple to mount. I will give an example for mounting to /mnt but feel free to substitute any mount point of your choosing.
sudo mount -t auto /dev/sdc /mnt
or
sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdc /mnt
For older kindles, it would have been /dev/sdc1
/dev/sdc is an unpartitioned, but formatted disk and /dev/sdc1 is the first partition on /dev/sdc
Newer kindles export the user stroe as an unpartitioned disk.
I suspect your computer has an SD card reader that it sees as /dev/sdb
