A change in 3.0.0 was to add a "Mark as Unread" option to the menu. This will be there if the book is being read or has been finished. And the "Mark as Finished" will only be there if the book is unread or being read. I just checked the CBR file I have. These options are being displayed correctly. Looking back at your original post, you actually did see this (you marked as unread and then read). Or am I missing where the "Mark as finished" is missing from?

For me, CBR/CBZ files never added to the "Books read" count even though they were read page by page and a page turn on the last page sent me back to the home screen, hence why i had to use the "Mark as finished" option. That happened with every firmware i used (2.6.1b, 2.8.1, 2.10 and now 3.0.0). Kobo books and sideloaded epubs work fine though.
I don't know about CBR/CBZ in the past. But, my testing over various firmware versions showed that using "Mark as Finished" in the library lists for an epub didn't increase the books finished count. The only way to do that was to page through the book.

But, I'm not sure what you are saying. Yes, reading through the book will send you back to the home screen when finished. Marking them as finished from the library doesn't that hasn't changed. What behaviour are you missing?
