Thanks to both of you for that tip. It definately clear things up.

Aah good to know. That was one of the few annoyances on the Glo.

Yep, you are right. Even though I haven't had problems with the cover thumbnails I have studied, they are kind of small, and too much text on the cover will be problematic.

I have had issues with bookmarks not syncing some times from one device to another but can't recall seeing the issue with reading stats before, moved from a wifi, to touch then to glo and now Aura and my stats came over each time, if it is important to you, you should consider a reset and try setup of the Aura again and see if the stats come over on your second try.

In that case I will give it another try. I like the stats even though I find the awards silly.
Did you set it up wirelessly or via the Kobo Desktop App?

Thanks
