I realised over the weekend that I was using three methods.

I started with a "Yes/No" column called "Read". I set it to yes when I finished a book.

Then I added the Reading List plugin. I created "To Read", "Reading" and "Read" lists. I move books between the lists. They also set a custom column with the status. I have a few other lists for other status such as "Cleaning" for books I am reading that have a lot of errors in them.

Now, I also retrieve the reading status from the Kobo Glo. This includes a "Percent read". If the device shows the book as finished, it is set to 100%. I have an icon rule that shows a green tick instead of the number when it is 100%

I need to get rid of at least on of these. And maybe automate the movement through the lists.
