Hiding book NOT on my device.

Hi GeekFreak,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities!

We understand that you'd like to hide books from your Books app. When you hide an item, it won't appear in your library on any devices that are signed in with your Apple ID. This article explains how: Hide and unhide music, movies, TV shows, audiobooks, and books

How to hide books and audiobooks

1. Open the Books app on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

2. Tap Library.

3. Tap the More  icon below the book or audiobook that you want to hide. If the item is part of a series, tap the series, choose an individual book, then tap More . 

4. Tap Remove. 

5. Tap Hide Book or Hide Audiobook.

If you don't see Hide Book or Hide Audiobook, look for Remove Download, which removes the book from your device, or Delete Everywhere, which removes the book from iCloud and all your devices.

You can also hide books in the Books app on a Mac. Click Book Store, click Featured, click Purchased in the Quick Links on the right, then click All. Hover your pointer over a book and click the Hide purchase button  that appears.

We hope this helps.

Cheers!

GeekFreak,

We would like to clarify. Are you referring to previously purchased books, or the personalized recommendations that appear after you are finished reading a book as listed here:

Have a great day.
