Quick answer
For import or storage problems with ebook imports, check the source file, free space, filename, and whether the item was already imported.
Do not re-import repeatedly before checking the library.
Missing file
Confirm the source still exists and Android Files can open or see it.
Import stops

Wrong title or cover
Metadata can be missing or incorrect. Use the filename as a fallback and keep the original file.
