Hello folks of mobileread

I was very glad when amazon rolled out kindle collection management from the manage your content and devices page but now it appears this function creates a problem: the collection I've created by that mean appear by order of creation and not by alphabetical order on my voyage.

The last collection correctly ordered is: Wrede, Patricia
The following collections, in order of appearance, are:
Springer, Nancy
Piers, Anthony
Duncan, Dave
Leagues of Peoples
Castle Perilous
Sapkowski, Andrzej

It's very annoying because when I want to put a book in a collection on my Kindle, if I choose for exemple Sapkowski, the kindle sends me to the page where Sapkowski should be, between Sagara, Michelle and Sanderson, Brandon. And in fact, Sapkowski is at the very end of my list of collections.

Note that once created in the cloud, I had to look for them when I wanted to put them on my kindle. I couldn't find them unless I put collections in the left drop-down menu and recent in the right drop-down menu.

I think that from now on I'll create my collections on my kindle and sync them with the cloud afterwards.

Does anyone else share my experience?
