In Kindle, there is an "About This Book" for each book which allows you to mark as reading on your Goodreads account and also shows some other information. This works normally for books I've purchased from Amazon.

However, for sideloaded books (not purchased from Amazon) which I've used Calibre to send to Kindle, this function does not seem to work and I keep getting the "Error Updating Profile" message. I've already checked and made sure the ASIN is included in the tag.

Any ideas?
