Can anyone recommend a good programme for organising books on a kindle? I have a paperwhite which is basic, but great for reading while travelling etc. However it’s such a pain to organise a folder structure on. I’m trying to find a way of doing it which is as simple as a windows drag and drop style structure. Any advice?

I don't bother - I just type what I want into the search box. Not sure what the benefit of sorting them all into folders would be.
Same reason you put all your cook books on the same shelf.
