Am I asking the impossible
Hia Polly, when you put a book into the kindle it goes into the "All Books" (most recent) list, then if you put it into one of your collections (which you obviously know how to do) the book shows up in the collection. The book is still in the "All Books " list because it is in the kindle.
If you sort your kindle by "collections" and go somewhere else in the kindle (like read a book) then press the "home" button you'll go to all your books sorted in collections, if you now sort your books by "Author" or "Title" you will see all your books whether they are in a collection or not and sorted in Author or Title (alphabetical) order. When you do a sort, your home page stays that way until you do different sort.
So, your books are always sorted, whether it be "most recent, title, author or collection".
So, you're not asking the impossible, just need to look at it differently !

As Cheryl says Calibre is brilliant, don't know how anyone can use a kindle without it !

Do you have a German/English dictionary on your kindle ? A very useful addition if you haven't ...
Long winded but hope it helps .
