The initial match list isn't a list of books. It is a list of matches in the fields that are searched. It will show matches in the title, author, series, and subtitle fields. Pressing one of these matches shows the books that fit that search. So, if the match is the series name, the books will be the books in the series. Because of this, rarely hit the Go button.

How about a little bit of both?
The UI conventions I can think of are:
- Nearly everything in the UI that is in italics is an action. Press it and something will happen.
- Pressing on an item in a list will open the item.
- Pressing and holding on an item in a list will display a menu for the item.
- Swiping on a list will turn the page. The swipe can be horizontal or vertical.
- Swiping on text will turn the page. The swipe can only be horizontal.
