I used to just mark the source in filename, but now I can add blurbs also.
Yes, dl site may have little metadata, but I don't care at that stage.
Even series - if I know or if dl site mentions, then I enter it, otherwise it has no importance until I want to read it and go looking for the reading order. Anyway, I try to avoid starting unfinished series (main culprit - The Game of Thrones).

I imagine that sometimes when I feel like it I'll do some cleaning and those books will be then on top of the TBR.

Also I can experiment more boldly with bulk download of metadata when I know that everything will get one-by one inspection before transfer to main library.
