Question about collections

So I just got my Kindle last week and started to add books to it. I was wondering what I should expect when putting books into collections though. I thought I could clean up the home page by putting books into collections but those same books are still viewable outside of the collection - is this the expected behavior and cannot be modified

Set it to show collections. Go all the way to the top of the screen then push right.

If you use view 'By Collections' then items you put in Collections are not listed, but in all the other views ('Most Recent First', 'Title', 'Author') you get everything listed.

Personally I never use any view other than 'By Collections' - it just looks too cluttered to me otherwise.
