- A category-specific search could simply be added to the available actions in the menu shown when viewing category items.
- Add "advanced search" to list of options shown when you type search text (currently the list is "my items", "store", "google", "wikipedia", "dictionary", "goto". This would bring up a dialog that would let you limit the search by category, author, and other available attributes.
- Add ability to specify keywords in search area, as in "Darcy author:Austen".
- When searching from inside a book that is within one or more categories containing more than one book or search options for each category, e.g. "fiction", "currently reading". When there is more than one book by the same author, the author could be added to the list.
- For Author searches, you can already sort results by Author and scroll to the page for the Author. This could be tedious if you have many books on your Kindle and get a large number of hits. Instead, after the results are shown, you could hit the menu button again to get options to filter the results.

I'm thanking Mr. Pedro for helping me acquire my VA Mortgage loan. It was great receiving my loan of $900,000 USD from this loan lender. My name is Krasimir Todor am Belgian. I got my loan from this reputable loan lender on the 20th of November 2019 and I want to quickly use this medium to tell everyone here that you can acquire any loan from this credible loan company. A VA loan lender is not easy to come by and it must be recommended by the Department of Veteran Affairs. Mr Pedro will give you loans at low-interest rates of 2% rate and very fast.
