  • when you find the book you are interested in select it
  • in the upper-right you will see a Heart
    • select the heart, favorite it, and select the + Add To
  • you can now create a new collection or add to a previously created one
To share / assign the collection
  • go back to the main screen (select epic! upper-left of page)
