  • Ability to rate books
  • Ability to control what information is displayed in the list (ie thumbnail, title, author,
  • rating; or, thumbnail, title, synopsis
  • Ability to sort books in a specific order within a collection, so you could sort your to read list in the order you're going to read them.
I'd love most of these things and also the only thing I miss from my Kindle, that little marker that showed how much of a book you've read. It let me manage reading a couple of books at a time without losing track of any of them.

Being able to order the collections on the reader would be a huge plus. No matter how much effort I make in Calibre to get everything in the proper order, they never appear correctly in the reader. I gave up and now put the book number after the book title, i.e. First Book [1], Second Book [2], etc., so I can still tell what order to read books of a series in.
