Seeing, yes, but without a start date, books couldn't be assigned to a specific month and the graph would be empty. Unless you mean there is another way to populate monthly read without a start date ?

In the original version the tracked and finished books aren't the same. Click the KPI cards to see the search string in Calibre. The status breakdown shows Finished, Reading, TBR, Paused, and DNF, if those statuses are assigned to any of your books. Unless all tracked books were labeled finished, then yes, that is the only detail you would see in the status breakdown pie chart.

(Rating was separated, because some users rate separately from their downloaded metadata rating and want to see the difference).
The standard columns that do not reflect on the Dashboard and can possibly be aggregated into specific charts:
Series
Rating*
Date (added to Calibre)
Published
Publisher
Language
File Format
Which would you be interested in seeing analytics as a reader?

Formats, meaning book format? (ie, Epub, pdf, etc)
As mentioned previously version 2 is focused on a more flexible way of tracking books, with less reliance on hard coded custom columns. After that it would be a matter of determining which statistics show on the dashboard, other than what is already there.
