I for one use the Utilities and some custom columns / shelf definition to automate the creation of shelves called Reading and Finished. I'll try to find the post where I describe what I do.

See https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...8&postcount=13

Quote:
This custom column seems to work for adding a book to either a Reading or Finished shelf based on the pct read.

Code:
Lookup name:    readstatus
Column Heading: Reading Status
Column Type:    Column built from other columns
Template:       {#koboreadpct:'cmp($, 100, cmp($, 0, '', '', 'Reading'), 'Finished', '')'}
with of course the corresponding change to add #readstatus to the list of fields used for shelving in either the Kobo or ExtendedKobo drivers. (I tend to update them both even though the Extended driver is normally disabled on my system).

In effect this is saying if the Pct Read is 100, the book is Finished, else if it's greater than 0, then the status is Reading.
