Calibre seems to freeze.
All I want to do is put an authors name e.g James Patterson in the search box and his books appear. It happened before but not now.
book64 - maybe this will work better for your author and other queries

Make a book by the author current, make the author column is current, then press 'q' - you will get a Quick List in a separate panel of the authors book's, and as you move though that list, the book is displayed in the main book list - a hidden gem I recently learned of.

Here's a thread with more info - it works for other fields too - https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=210621

There are some changes in the pipeline that will make it a bit more obvious that the feature exists.
