But I guess that won't happen....

Being able to decide, as I mentioned in an earlier post would make it useful perhaps. And maybe there is a feature on it other than the standard last opened book that I would find useful if it didn't find it mildly annoying and could bring myself to delve into it farther.

Even if you just wanted books on the screen - simply dismiss everything else and enjoy the fast and easy access to the books.
Also if you add annotations or highlights quite frequently - tap on the highlight/notes section of the tile and it opens the list of annotations. Very convenient.

The fact that you keep having to dismiss things is one of the irritating things for me.
It is as clean as possible and then all of a sudden there is another little sticker added. And often the ones I might get crazy and use are rearranged.
I would far rather have better reading functionality and better and faster shelf navigating and sorting that is consistent.
I don't annotate, but I have heard of problems in that area too.
Still nice that you are happy
