I didn't go through all the others, so these might have already been requested. I have an Aura HD.

So, if I choose a book from a shelf, when I press to bring up the menu, I would like to see a back button beside the home button so I can go back to the shelf I was at when I opened that book, or back to the books library if I chose from the books library and not a shelf.

Instead of having to go Press for Menu > Home > Library > Shelves > Choose specific Shelf again > Choose book

I'd rather go Press for Menu > Back > Choose book. Possibly cutting out 3 steps with 1 simple button function.

I would also like more control over the tiles on the Home screen. If I long-press in a blank area, I would like a "clear all tiles" option. I would also like to see an "add tile" option, and then a listing of what kinds of tiles to add, like say adding a specific Shelf, adding a specific Book, adding whatever tiles are possible. It would also be nice to be able to lock specific tiles so they can't be removed unless they are first unlocked.

I don't care about the "Reading Life" thing at the bottom of the home screen, so I'd like to be able to remove it.

I would also like to be able to see more than 6 books per listing, maybe 8 or 10 would be nice.

That's all I can think of right now.
