I fully agree, its an atrocious lack of testing before release, and an appaling lack of quality control at amazon app store. How can Amazon let an app go live which requires a google licence {that amazon cannot provide}, and then refuse to permit a developer rollback to working version.
easy with hindsight but back up all your amazon app purchases, then you can disable auto updates and restore a previous working version when needed. I learned to do this with Bookari, as they had a history of botched updates, but same method will work for any app.

in the meantime, you may want to explore other ways to get books onto fire, without needing CC at all. e,g, send to kindle , and read in the Fire tablet kindle app. they will show as docs, not books , and have to be read via DOCS but that's no great hassle.

seriously though, having to reply on Amazon app store is just bad. if you don't want the sideload hassle for google, get a proper e.g. samsung android tablet. [ you can install the amazon app store onto android tablets, if tyou have owned apps that you still want to use
