It looks like it's using the 420 character limit instituted for reading progress comments (as mentioned earlier in this thread), but I've definitely got the custom column linked with the "Review text column:" setting in the plugin. (I don't even know where reading progress comments would go, since there doesn't seem to be a place where you can choose which custom column they should be linked with.)

Thoughts?
My thoughts on this was it was always a goodreads api limitation and nothing to do with the plugin.
