No - the pro version does not have custom bookshelves or a favorites view.
It does have an Author view. If you put the word "Favorites" in place of the author or some key string, then click the ... in the upper right corner it will take you to a list grouped by authors. Click on the one you want and it shows you a cover view - title order but only for for the books with that author.
What most people do is use a special collection manager like Calibre on your PC/Mac then use this to push books in whatever order / type you want to your ereader.
This works because Calibre is not really a 'reader' but a 'manager' software so it has a lot of features like you want. Then you use Moon+ Reader to read, but not manage your collection.
This is a better way to go because eventually your collection of books & magazines and comics will no longer fit on your tablet. So it is a bad place to 'manage' things when it cannot hold everything.
The thing the Pro version got me was PDF support.
EDIT:
Ok - Moon+ Reader has gotten several updates and has made improvements.
I click the three ... in the upper right and one of the selection is "SHELF TYPE". I click it and the menu changes to "My Favorites", "My Downloads", "By Author", "By Tags", "Storage Folder", "Comic", "Fantasy", "SciFi".
So you can add tags in Moon+Reader to create custom bookshelves.
Also - long-press one of the covers and you can edit the book information. A check box lets you add a book to "Favorite". There is also a separate Tags: field and next to Favorite you can pre-define categories to give you the 3 different criteria.
Now - will the reader 'remember' my custom shelf? To flip back to the main screen with current books across the top and LOCAL FILES, NET LIBRARY, MY SHELF, STATISTICS. When I choose MY SHELF - I get everything.
But it is only 2 clicks to return to the SciFi shelf.
