Red face Books going to wrong place on Fire

I have downloaded several books on my Kindle fire using my calibre software. Some of the book go to my book section, quite a few others end up in my doc's section. How do I get them to load into books in the future, & how do I move them from docs to books

I have the same problem when I send to my device (Kindle Fire) from
Calibre, is there some way I can tell Calibre where to put the books?

That has nothing to do with where the books are sent. The Fire organises books based on an internal field indicating if the book is a "personal document". Fo to preferences->Output options->MOBI output and make sure the Personal Doc tag field is blank. Then *reconvert* your books to MOBI in calibre, delete them from the Fire and resend them.
