Previous selected book when opening Calibre
Every time I start Calibre on my PC, it is always selecting the last book I have added to my collection in the cover grid.

As I am currently reading a book I have added a couple of months ago, every time I start Calibre I need to loop through the books to find the one I am interested in (the last book I was reading).

Is there a way to remember the book I was previously reading?

Open the ebook-VIEWER from the Start Menu (Calibre does not need to be running)

The viewers Open Icon Right-click has a Last (few) Opened list. The last is on the top

And the "View" toolbar icon in the library GUI has a similar dropdown.

I've hidden that icon since I use the keyboard shortcut to open books in the viewer.

I removed the Icon as I knew 'V' worked.
But it appear that the Context Menu 'View' also has the last read list (whoda thunkit)
