Your NOOK, above all, is designed for reading books, and it always keeps them front and center. And that’s what the Keep Reading and More menus, at the top of the Home screen, do for you.
In the upper-left part of the Home screen, you see an open-book icon followed by the words “Keep Reading” and the name of the last book, magazine, or newspaper you were reading. Tap that icon, and you jump to the most recent page. If you’re new to the NOOK and have yet to read anything on it, you see the sad phrase “Keep Reading None.” (If that’s the case, get reading real fast; that’s what the NOOK is for, after all.)
What if you want to see more than just the last book, newspaper, or magazine you were reading? Glad you asked—that’s where the More menu comes in. Tap the More button, and a menu drops down with lots more than just the last book you were reading. It lists:
Titles and authors of the last three books you’ve read.
Titles and publication dates of the last three newspapers or magazines you’ve read.
Names and file types of the last three files you’ve opened in the My Files folder.
Three Netflix recommendations. If you’re logged into Netflix, the recommendations are based on the kinds of movies and TV shows you have in your Netflix queue. If you’re not logged in, the recommendations are based on what’s currently popular, and there’s a link you can tap to log in.
To open anything on the More menu, just tap it. To close the menu without opening anything, tap anywhere outside the More menu.
