Want to better manage titles/meta data

Hi Everyone,

To keep this simple, I have a collection for each series I have. In the collection, I would love to either add a reading order / book # field or simply add two digits to the beginning of the title to better sort. i.e. 01 - Book Name.

What would be the easiest, most non-intrusive way, of doing this?

I assume I would have to jailbreak my kindle, download and de-drm my books, edit the titles, and side load them back to my kindle?

I am using a Kindle Paperwhite Gen 10 (2018).

Thanks

No jailbreaking needed, but you'd need to download and de-DRM your books, yes. Actually using Calibre metadata plugboards you won't even need to change the titles, but if you've never used Calibre before, editing the titles may be the easier way.
