Are there any other words like that, that can be either masculine or feminine depending on context yet don't have endings that would indicate such?

For adjectives, the feminine singular and plural forms are both the same. In this example, किताबें is plural feminine, and it's implied that दोस्त is also plural feminine. Take a look at the following examples:
राज मेरा दोस्त है = Raj is my friend.
राज और आमिर मेरे दोस्त हैं = Raj and Aamir are my friends.
जूलिया मेरी दोस्त है = Julia is my friend.
जूलिया और नेहा मेरी दोस्त हैं = Julia and Neha are my friends.

Cause books are considered feminine in hindi .. so if its our friend we will say she(book) is our friend Thats why meri dost

दोस्त is a word of masculine gender. It is the same plural or singular. दोस्तों is the Oblique Case of a plural form of this word.
The gender and number of possessive pronouns agrees with the gender and number of the object. How is it possible to write मेरी दोस्त ?
