I've found it useful to list books ordered by filename, in the order they are read - E.g. In the Isaac Asimov series of Foundation books (listed below by title), which do I read 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc?

documents\
+ Asimov, Isaac\
. + Forward the Foundation.mobi
. + Foundation & Chaos.mobi
. + Foundation and Earth.mobi
. + Foundation and Empire.mobi
. + Foundation's Edge.mobi
. + Foundation's Fear.mobi
. + Foundation's Friends.mobi
. + Foundation's Triumph.mobi
. + Foundation.mobi
. + Prelude to Foundation.mobi
. + Second Foundation.mobi


So, I rename the books to contain a number prefix to denote the reading order - change the titles in the EXTH header, and my problem is solved.

documents\
+ Asimov, Isaac - Foundation\
. + 01 - Foundation.mobi
. + 02 - Foundation and Empire.mobi
. + 03 - Second Foundation.mobi
. + 04 - Foundation's Edge.mobi
. + 05 - Foundation and Earth.mobi
. + 06 - Prelude to Foundation.mobi
. + 07 - Foundation's Fear.mobi
. + 08 - Forward the Foundation.mobi
. + 09 - Foundation & Chaos.mobi
. + 10 - Foundation's Triumph.mobi
. + 11 - Foundation's Friends.mobi


It's a matter of personal preference - I organise mobi files into folders this way...
