Cool kindle sorting

thanks in advance,
Dani
the only thing i experience on my kindle is that the kindle doesn't put the books in the same order as calibre does within a specific author. whereas my calibre library sorts by author, then title and then series. even though there must be one, i've never noticed any rhyme or reason to how the kindle does it
