I would like to have an home library which i can access from all my devices.

Synching notes, bookmarks and highlits, it has to be accessible from android as well, i tried with nextcloud but doesn't work very well.

Is Calibre good for that? How can i access those books and datas from my phone?

Calibre Server with Calibre Web. Works beautifully and you can configure it with Kindle devices so when a user finds a book they want to read they can click this icon that looks like a paper airplane and it sends it to their kindle
