Just deal with it. Believe it or not, many Kobo users don't like the home screen either and they do just that. Why? Because Kobo has other features that are compelling. For many it will be things like being able to borrow library books. Believe it or not, many libraries only support Adobe's DRM. Other people will want to buy books from third parties without doing converting formats or stripping DRM. Yet other people appreciate the microSD expansion slot. There are even people who like Kobo because Kobo is a relatively open platform that is safe and easy to modify.

It isn't even that much to deal with. It is the place where you select the book that you want to read, then you spend most of your time in the reader software. Even when you are selecting a different book, it isn't too bothersome. Unless you read a lot of books concurrently, the book you want to read is probably there. Otherwise it is a minor amount of trouble to go to the library screen. Maybe you're willing to forego the features offered by Kobo because of that, yet many people aren't.
