Any way to prevent accidental opening of read books?
The little "..." used to open book menu is very small and I accidentally opening books when trying to check the book details or add/remove book to collection. Is there anything that can help with this?

Using a stylus instead of a finger helps, but it still happens occasionally.

I know this is obvious, but it has to be said. Don't tap the book title or icon.

To make it clear: I have hand tremours. If I try to tap the "..." sometimes I miss. If I try to hold, sometimes it's accidentally a tap.
I was hoping maybe for a patch that would change the tap behaviour so that it opened the menu or the book details. |

Kobo could make the target area much bigger. It's not as if there's something near it. I have big hands and have to be very careful when tapping the ... or I'll open the book.
