@melovesflying: Is the goal to create a collecton for "Finished Books" or "Unfinished Books", or both?
EDIT: On my end, simply ticking "Create" for a tristate column does the right thing: anything with that column set to true ends up in a collection named after the human-readable name of said column.
So, basically, just set the action to Create, forget all my crappy ramblings from yesterday and leave everything else blank, and you're done
.

A search for
ondevice:true AND #read:true confirms that it's doing the right thing.
Note that my Read column is tristate, but that shouldn't be a factor here compared to a boolean one.
