The shelfs system is useless. Let's say I finish reading the Harry Potter series, and want to move them to my Harry Potter shelf. This takes 2 seconds, but they are still visible in the main area of the library.

I have a ton of books on my iPad, in four different book readers. I like keeping my books cataloged. Andre Norton has her own file. David Weber has his own file. H. Beam Piper has his own file.

That keeps their books out of the way. Otherwise the main screen is an unholy mess, and I waste more time trying to find what I want. I may or may not know the title. All too often I'm interested in a specific style of read, rather than a specific book, and being able to keep the various authors each in their own catalog (shelf) would make the app a lot easier to use.
