Mostly just out of curiosity.

I have seventeen.

Four for reading status: Currently Reading (includes the immediate TBR list), Pile of Shame (yearly backlog), Unread, and Read.

I have five more for the type of book: Fiction, Fanfiction, Nonfiction, Magazines & Publications, and Documentation & Manuals. I used to have one for Comics, but later merged it (first into magazines, then into fiction).

Then I have:
- Series
- eBooks
- Physical Books
- Purchases
- Loans (I don't keep the books myself, just records)
- On Device

Then the last two are Recently Added (in the last 30 days) and Cleanup (mostly used as intake, but sometimes older books get flagged and end up here until I fix various issues).

A lot of my VLs also have an associated View Manager views because I use a lot of custom columns for different purposes:
