I've got a custom column in Calibre called Read? (also "Date Read"). But I also use Goodreads. I used to keep track of my TBR by adding together my "currently reading" and "to read" shelves. I then made a rule that unless my TBR went down over a month I couldn't buy any new (e)books the following month. I had to abandon it because I kept cheating. Also a lot of TBR list is technically to-be-read but will take a long time to reach the top of the list. I find it hard to pass up a book from a favourite author in order to read a classic I downloaded because I've heard of it and thought I'd read it "one day".
