Each Tile can be "dismissed" by long pressing on it and selecting "dismiss" from the context menu.
By dismissing the Tiles you don't want, it is easy to have the Tiles to the shelves or extras (I like the word scramble) you want, always available.
If you load a number of new books on your Aura, instead of them each using separate Tiles, a single Tile is created called something like "New Books".

In firmware 2.5.2 the only differences I have been able to detect so far are that the SYNC tile CANNOT be dismissed and it uses up all the space below the Main book Tile. This reduces the possible number of books shown from 11 to 9, annoying but not fatal.

None of it is fatal Larry I guess I just like things more orderly and less random.

Seeing the home screen doesn't upset me even if it does look like s small childs sticker book. I just do not find it very useful.
