Thanks reed!

I have a couple suggestions that would make the script more appealing to my tastes:

A config/ini file where we can set the path to the Kobo (so the '-d /media/KOBOeReader/.kobo/KoboReader.sqlite' argument wasn't necessary every time)

I think it would also be nice to have a certain level of basic interactivity for the changing status of books function. Something like the script listing the currently opened books in a numbered list, and allowing us to 'close' a certain one by hitting the appropriate number/key?

I just think it might be easier to quickly change the status of a book with a SQlite tool, so why bother with an automation script that makes the process tedious and longer? (I'm not bitching reed, don't take this wrong. I appreciate you making this available to us, and I'm just sharing my opinions/feedback)
