But that doesn't give you the newest books in each category, when I ha ve gone to fiction for instance I just see a big huge list of books; I want to know what the new fiction books that have just been uploaded to the site are.

Hi, why not browse according to category? You can choose whatever genre you like. That might help a bit. Regards, Kim Friedman.*From:* Dianne B. Phelps [mailto:d.bphelps@xxxxxxxxxxx] *Sent:* Sunday, December 28, 2014 2:35 PM *To:* bookshare-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx *Subject:* [bookshare-discuss] Need Suggestions, please.I am sorry to say that I am having trouble finding new and interesting books to read. I have tended to be a user of the New Books List; however because that list also lists so many professional titles and educational titles which I am glad to see Book Share providing, I am having difficulty finding new fiction. Does anyone know of published lists of new and good books for pleasure reading.I may not have all the techniques of searching the BookShare collection; but I am feeling a little as though with publisher inputting to the system, Book Share itself is losing control over how we can find things. Maybe what we need is "New Book" catagories instead of that one huge list of everything which comes in.. I'd like to be able to look for New Mysteries, New Biographies, New fiction and nonfiction. I feel as though we are getting a lot of republishing of old titles; and I find it confusing.Any suggestions or techniques others may find helpful would be extremely helpful to me.I just don't know what I am missing in use of Advanced Search. If I use some of the catagories, I get lists which are in Alpha order without the ability to move to other letters of the alphabet easily.I love and appreciate Book Share dearly, but am feeling I will need to weigh the benefits versus cost if finding material continues to be sodifficult.Anyhelp offered will be greatly appreciated. Feeling frustrated, Dianne B. Phelps, Napa, California
