I do two things to assist me with this.

1. Sort by the series column in Calibre then select the entire series and send them to the reader in one bunch. They will be in series order on your reader.

2. I convert every book on my reader. When I do I add a book jacket (using Calibre's insert metadata as page option) just inside the front cover that has the series and series number. This just gives me confidence that the next book I'm reading this the correct one in the series. See attached image for example.

My first step put them in order the second part just adds to my confidence that I'm reading the right book.
