Amazon "Your Books"

Why would that matter? If you ARE able to distinguish your books from somebody elses in a shared library, great. If you AREN'T, then what does it matter? If you're confused and think someones elses books might be yours, why not just consider them yours then? If you can't tell if they're yours or not, that must mean that you are at least a little intrigued by them - otherwise you would have recognized that they weren't yours. And if you're intrigued by them, they might as well be yours (for practical use) then. The actual ownership distinction seems meaningless to me. In an Amazon Household you have a shared pool of books that anyone in the Household can legally read. So for practical purposes, ownership is meaningless.

You know, you dont actually have those books back, they are just showing the books you have had access to over the years as a way of categorizing your reading.
