I have 4 pages of shelves, 28 shelves in all. Due to the limitations we are discussing, I cut that down from over 10 pages (over 70 shelves). I don't use many author collections now. I have 7 shelves that are next in series for various genres, 8 shelves that are 1st in series various genres, 6 shelves that are labeled Non-series in various genres, 2 other genre shelves, 1 shelf of books to re-read, and 4 author shelves.
One of those shelves has 212 books on it, 1 has 112, 3 of them have over 50 but less than 100, the rest have under 50. (Some as few as 4 books on a shelf).
I find this system works pretty well, so that I can quickly choose what to read next. I did enjoy having author collections, but it wasn't worth the slowness. 3-4 seconds to load the shelves page is great. I'll have to keep it this way.
Remember this is for the Glo. I don't know how many shelves per page the Aura can display.
Oh and something else I just thought of....if it's a series book but not 1st or next in a series, and I want it on there, I just don't tag it for a shelf. So it's on there and I can bring it up in a search.
