Calibre Companion - can I edit tag?

Hi,
I'm wondering if there is a way to edit the tag of a book on the device and then sync it back to Calibre?

The reason I ask is (may be I'm wrong, as I'm new to Calibre):

my work flow is:

1) put all my ebooks in a single directory
2) add these books to Calibre
3) send these books to CC on the Android
4) read on the Android

5) when I get a new eBook, add it to the directory in (1)
5a) send all books in (1) to device again to get the new book(s) on the device (easier to send all, instead of pick and choose the new ones)


What I can't figure out is how do I keep track which ones I finished reading and therefore sync back to Calibre? I like to be able to see which ones I read in Calibre. So what I thought is to add a tag 'Read' in CC after I'm done with a book, then next time when I sync it back, these books will have a tag 'Read' on Calibre's side. Does this make sense? If not, how do I keep track of finished books? (Let's say I put 100 books on my device, take it on vacation, read 40 of them and I like to tag these 40 as 'Read' in Calibre when I come back home?)

Thank you!
mike

PS: I use Moon+ Reader to read. I changed the tag in M+R but it did not get sent back to Calibre
