Aura Pinning a book to the home page?

bartveld · 07-07-2014, 07:52 AM

Bear with me, this is what I would like:

Apart from the books I read from A to Z there are those books which I would like to dip into every now and again. Books of quotations, that sort of thing. That type of book needs to be close at hand, to just pick up and browse.
So... is there a way I can pin those books to the home page, permanently and independent of all the changing info and tiles?

I seem to remember having had a reader which could do this, may have been the Kindle, but I'm not at all sure...

If the Aura is like the Kobo Touch then I'm pretty sure there isn't a way. The only solution I'm aware of is to make a shelf or collection or whatever they're called now.

Recently read sort of library or search for book title should quidkly bring up your book.

Items on the front page don't vanish but have to be pushed off, so if you dismiss other books after you've finished with them (long press) then the ones you want will stay on.

You might possibly like to place all the books you want to keep on the home page on a shelf / collection. That way once the shelf has been opened via the library view, it will appear on the home page.

Thanks for all the suggestions. They're still roundabout ways to get to where I want to be, but probably the best (only) options.
