I wish they would give us a dedicated Home button in the top bar. There's more than enough room next to the Light button.

In this firmware version, if you have opened a book from "My Books" and you want to close it, you get presented with a button "Go back to My Books," while most of the time I want to go to the Home screen. It takes two extra steps (Menu → Home) to get there.

The logic of a Home button is that it should always be available to take you directly back to the start screen.
