Just tested and adding to currently reading and then read resolves the date not showing up problem for me. However, doing that gives me some weird date combinations as the date started is a date after the date read.

I don't use the Currently Reading normally as i will read several (5-6 or more) books before syncing tablet and updating Goodreads.

If it helps here is my method.

Add book to Calibre, update Goodreads to TBR (which does add shelved date.)
Transfer book to tablet (Calibre Companion)
When I select the book to be read in my reading app (Alkido) Calibre Companion marks the book read and fills in the date. This date is not a problem as I normally finish same or next day.
When I sync tablet again my date read is completed in Calibre as part of the syncing process (date as shown in Calibre Companion.)
I mark book read in the Read column (manually created column) fill in rating/review.
I then add to "Read" shelf.
When I look at Goodreads by book status will have changed to read but the date read is not shown. I think the rating also shows up but I don't remember specifically checking.

This may or may not help.
