Thoughts?

Interesting idea, but I wonder if there isn't a more general solution. It seems that what you want to do is "mark" books as interesting for some reason. This would be done as a check box in book details. At some later time you would ask to see marked books, something that could be done using the grouping drawer. You could sort them as you like. You could also long-press the mark group then group in other ways, although I suspect that this isn't something people would do.
The downside of the "mark" is that there would be immediate demand to sync it back to calibre, something I don't want to do. The CC-to-calibre sync process is already too slow. The sort idea would not have this problem.
A mark feature would also require a "clear all marks" operation. That would be easy to implement. The question is "where to put it?" I suspect adding it both to the book details menu and to Settings / Other is the right thing to do.
Both options would require a dreaded database upgrade.
I am not sure which (sort or mark) is the right way to go, or even if either should be implemented.
