I think in book is rounded up when appropriate and library view is truncated.
amazon's mathematics is weird and inconsistent throughout, including for battery state of charge.

Yes, I think the book/library percentage difference showed up a few updates ago and have the same conjecture about the arithmetic. And this still happens on Kindle. The apps seem not to have this problem.
But I'm coming around to the view that something might have changed (maybe not just on Kindle). On Kindle, I never see 0% anywhere, in Library or in book, it is always at least 1%. Also true with Kindle for iOS. So it seems that 1% means 'within first percent' and not 'one percent complete'.
Kindle for Android will show 0% in the book (for first few pages) but then no percentage is shown in Library.
But now I'm going to try to put my attention on something at least a little bit more important.
