I figure preferences -> adding books -> tags to apply -> ❤️

then after adding them, you'd need to remove the tag ❤️ from the preferences

I use emblems/column icons and a custom column for that. Emblem is a star. Custom column is yes/no #fav. (favourite)

Well, Bulk metadata edit has an Add Tags (and / or remove) that can be used to apply changes to ANY SELECTED group of books.
Select books: Tap 'E' or use the icon: fill in the boxes as desired.
REMEMBE: This applies to ALL THOS SELECTED and there is no easy undo.
ALWAYS CHECK the calibre STATUS LINE before clicking OK or Apply
