Thank you both, @davidfor and @DNSB - you two are always so quick with your helpful replies.
I can't say I've had much luck with the default setting for the search in the past (I always had to reselect 'search my collections') but perhaps this has changed in one of the updates that I missed recently. Now I know, I can have a play and try to fix it.
As for the advertising - apologies for jumping the gun, I haven't had much of a chance to read anything while I've been sorting out my device, so hopefully things will start to change soon. I did open and close a few books and collections, but none of them appeared on my home screen. Fingers crossed it will soon.
Thanks again for all your help.
