Love Duolingo community, even with it's pair of numbskulls (like myself), there is always an explanation for everything and you get it just a few click/touches away on the discussions instead of paying who knows how much to a private teacher.
After 'г', 'и' is used rather than 'ы'. See the spelling rules in the Tips & Notes here: https://www.duolingo.com/skill/ru/Plurals
Also note the first vowel: "книги".

Actually, the best translation of нет is "there is/are no" as нет derives from не есть.
Not exactly. Russian has different cases, and they affect how words are written. Here's a guide for cases https://learnrussianstepbystep.com/en/russian-cases/
