Display "next in series" instead of "finished"?

When I used the Sony PRS-350 with the PRS+ software, it was possible to display on the homepage the next books in the series in sequence. The Kobo Aura by default shows you the books you have just finished. Is there any way to get it to show the next books in the series you are reading instead?

The closest you can get is to create a collection for the series. When you open a book from the collection, it will put a tile for the collection on the home screen.

Another thing you could do is open all the books in the series from back to front. They will appear as tiles on the home screen. When other tiles get in the way (eg finished books), long-press to dismiss those tiles, and your series tiles will return.

Thank you both for your help. I think I will try to set up collections with the help of calibre so I'm trying to read up on that to figure out how to do that. By the way, I didn't know that a long-press dismisses a finished book tile. Good to know indeed!
