Reading the manual, while the book is currently being read, there is a go to option. One of these options is: end — takes you to the end of the book. From here, you can rate the book, see other recommended books, and share your reading progress with your social networks.
I have no idea if it's accessible or not? Not having my Kindle as of yet, I can't check it out. -----Original Message----- From: Felinitye

I knew about the other books thingy ...though I always forget to use it, thanks for reminding me! Do let me know if you and Jane do another podcast. Though I've been using the Kindle since 2011, I'm not an acknowledged expert ...and, of course, I admit freely that i have much to learn!

Now, this may not be a surprise to some and it might not even be a big deal to most, but for this technonerd, blind guy, and book reader extraudinaire, well, it was enough to get me jumping just a bit for joy, Ok, seriously. I giggled like a ten year old kid in a canduy store but I digress. At the end of a book when you finish reading a book, you get the prompt: you've finished. Tweet share that you've finished this book. Eroneously, I've thought that's all that was there, close the book out, remove it and I'm done, finished, move on to the next one please. Oh, but no!! The plot thickens. There is more. And, it's juicy. Use your square button, the up and down arrow selecter, you know the one, the five way navigation bar thingy. Move down, you get, rate this book, which if you hit enter on, move right or left you can increase or decrease your rating, and go down to save, and it saves your rating. If you go below rating, you see, customers who bought this item also bought: and it gives a list of othert titles that customers have bought that purchased that book. If you go down one more, you get a list of other titles by that particular author that you are reading. Now, you still can't buy from the store that I can tell, but this even is a little more than we had, and where did this come from? If it was there before as I said, I never saw it. Jane and I didn't cover it in either of our presentations because I don't think we saw it, if she did, Jane, good job, because I seriously missed it. Otherwise, we need to get together at some point you and I, and do a follow up podcast/podcasts/whatever, and talk about some really cool things we've found out, as we compile them. (no, I'm not saying do it tomorrow but as we find things we ought to put them in a pile and do something later with it, Lol.) But, anyway, enough of my prattle. I'm taking my kindle and heading to bed. I've rated two books, and as cool and sweet as Bard is, I can't wait for a day we can rate Bard books, Lol. But, I like rating here better than using iBooks because you actually have to find the picker item after you've read, they don't just place it at the end of the book, like here. Just thought you guys might want to know, and have fun rating away. Now that I can see what other books somebody has written I can go back on Amazon and buy buy buy, Lol. Talk to you guys. soon.
