  Use the following shell command for listing the last three files:
  
  ```
  find database/media/books -type f -exec stat --format '%Y :%y %n' {} \; \
      | sort -nr | cut -d: -f2- | head -3
  
  ```
  
  For putting a book at the top of the list use `touch`:
  
  ```
  touch database/media/books/mybook.epub
  
  ```
