science
economics

Another book could be in
cultural analysis
law
politics
USA

I may be in the mood for reading on a certain topic. When I do, I check out my collections.

In my dream ereader, browsing my collections will be as fast as scrolling on a webpage on a computer.
Only 1700 books on the ereader? And over 400 collections? Even with your explanation, I find your use of collections more than a trifle risible. Sorry but it's an ereader not the digital equivalent of the library card catalogue.

As for your dream ereader? Given how painful browsing the web on a eInk device is, dreaming is a kind word.
