So books published and sold on Amz Jan 3, 2023 and after have not shook hands with my wallet; I'm stubbornly not buying a kindle [when I already have an old ereader that is in perfect reading order] or update the app just to read them.

So I am really going through 'AmzBooks 2023 withdrawal' and while irritating, I find I have saved some money. So that is never a bad thing. IMO, that is.
Because Amazon doesn't see any need to allow anyone to read their books on other devices/apps. Have you tried the Kindle for Android method?
