I've tried Dropbox in Moon and in CC but it seemed to be one way only. I want some ideas how to make this easy for my wife. Instead of running a server, connecting, etc. would be nice if the two-way sync just worked whenever books were added/removed from Calibre or removed from tablet after reading.

I tried the Drobbox client itself but that doesn't give a local folder on the tablet to use for local library. Saw another post about Foldersync app but looks like one way only.

Thanks
Deleting books from a calibre library should only be done by calibre. Otherwise, the calibre database is going to have records for books that no longer exist. An inconsistent database is a very very bad idea.
