Since this update and the series feature set in:
- Old books I borrowed and returned ages ago are showing up in the filter mixed with currently borrowed books --- the borrow count is correct in number at the top of the filter, but not matching what is shown. The book info is not showing as downloaded if it's clicked on, but it's under the "downloaded" tab of KU like it's currently borrowed. I do not have "show all" selected, which shouldn't matter anyway since these have been returned long ago. It's 2-3 books at a time and random. It picked one horrible book I returned unable to read with a horrid cover too of course to keep bringing back
- current borrowed KU books - some aren't showing up under the KU filter at all. I know they are currently borrowed and they showed fine before this update.
- Random collection folders are there now when trying to see just Kindle unlimited books. It's random and I have no why. I never had collections pop up before under the Kindle Unlimited library filter. One is an empty collection folder I don't even remember making.
- 2 books I've purchased ad currently have downloaded to the device are showing under the KU filter now, although they are not KU and are missing the KU ribbon. I believe these two ARE available on KU if you want to borrow them, but I purchased these instead (one is an author friend and I remember supporting her sale)
- I have tried resetting, changing from title to recent and back again, but no luck. Hopefully the bug doesn't last because it's annoying looking.

I have the same issue. You explained it a bit better than I tried in a earlier post of mine. Its not consistent so confusing. I put my currently borrowed KU titles in a collection called "reading". So when I filter by "KU" I get not the titles itself anymore, but that folder for those I borrowed. In addition I get series groups with books I don't even remember checking out via Ku its been so long. But only 6 of them. And I have read many KU books and had it many years so there would be more books that should have a series group. A lot more. So why those I don't know.
The other thing I find a bit confusing is that I see both a book cover on my kindle and the same again as the series group folder if its the first one. If that makes sense. So the cover shows up twice, once with a number in the bottom left, which is the series number owned and the other cover is just the book downloaded with a checkmark. In one case I downloaded all 4 books in the series as I just bought them. So I see all 4 book covers and an additional one that is the series group.
Its a bit less confusing when I change sort to list instead of covers, but then I cant see the covers and the series groups are only listed with the name of the series. Not a book title or even author. I read a lot of series and wouldn't have a clue at times which author that series is by.
I do hope they will fine tune a bit. I'll get used to whatever eventually and get back to reading in any case.
