Surely you must be privy to some secret unknown to me.

Turn me on!
There are 3 sorting options on the Kindles - sort by most recent, sort by title and sort by author. On a K2 (from your profile, I'm assuming this is what you have), press the "home" key and you should now be on the first book in the list. Use the 5-way controller to move "UP" one line. You should see 2 little arrows appear on the left and right of this top line. If you move the 5-way to the right, you can select the sorting option that you prefer (recent/title/author). If you move the 5-way to the left, you can choose which items are displayed (everything/books/subscriptions/personal docs)

I usually leave my Kindle sorted by most recent (sounds like this is what you're using), but sorting by title or author can be useful when I'm looking for something in particular. If you have your titles sorted in one of the alphabetical lists (author/title) you can go directly to a specific letter of the alphabet using the keyboard.

HTH,
Tracey
