Yes, I thought so, but can't figure out what it is that's affecting these few books.
I've worked around it for most of my affected books by deleting them from my GR shelves, then using the upload-to-shelf action for them. There are a couple of issues with doing this - they are minor for me, but I wanted to mention them in case they might be bigger problems for someone else:
1. There is a limit to the number of characters in the review text with GR/Calibre sync, so it might be necessary to copy-and-paste it (copy before deleting the book from GR!)
2. The "date added" on GR will be changed to the newly-uploaded date.
3. Any likes or comments on the GR review will be lost.
4. The date-started on GR will be lost.
Ideally, I'd like to see a "download read-date only if read-date field is empty", which would also solve the issue of losing first-read dates for those books which are re-reads. (I see a suggestion earlier in this thread for someone who is uploading to GR, but it doesn't help with sync'ing.)
