Oh dear. I have over 50 collections. I won't list them all here, but I can demonstrate how I use them.

First, I have several genre collections, such as:
Fiction: Horror
Fiction: Suspense
Non-Fiction: Biographical
Non-Fiction: History
Short Fiction: Horror

and so on. You can see my sort of pseudo-hierarchy that I use to make up for not having a sub-collections feature.

Then I have "special collections". These are created from my Reading Lists (which I capitalized because I'm referring to my use of the Reading List Plugin). These lists contain books which are marked for special reading goals, so those collections are:

KFreebies (because I'm trying to make progress in the many Kindle Freebies I've acquired)
Harlequin Decimation (yeah, I have too many Harlequins)

Finally, I have collections for certain series I plan to read this year:
Beasthouse
Vampire/Mayfair
Millennium Trilogy
Hollows

Within this collection, the books have been retitled with the metadata plugboards as such:
SeriesName 1 - Book Title

I have nearly 500 books on my Kindle. It is my selection of reading material for the whole year. Now, I don't plan to read ALL of them this year, I just like to have a variety available so this is sort of a curated subset of my library. I never know what I will be in the mood to read next.
