Personally I think the issue of collections is a matter of reading strategy. I do not use collections, have had no need for the technology, however I can see why people would want them and make use of them. As a consequence I have not really had any need to learn about the technology and don't know much. Personally I do not put a book onto my paperwhite until ready to read it, if I am not ready for it, its till in the KU library and I know where it is and can go get it when the time is right for it. I can understand that some individuals might want to have the whole series available to them at one time so that they can move on when the time comes no matter where they are, no matter what they are doing at the time, the one flaw in my plans.
I typically recommend that people create create collections around book series or authors. Create a collection with the name of the author and put his/her books into that collection. However I understand that there are a million ways to, as they say in computer programing "to skin a cat." There is no right way and no wrong way, just what works best for you. My method does have the problem that once I finish book one of a series I need to wait until I get home before starting book two, I get that, so if you have the whole series in a collection there is no waiting.
