Custom Charts with Read/Unread Tags

I've been trying to keep track of what % of my owned books I have read and what I haven't read yet- and sometimes based on a certain event (for instance, I participate in indie bookstore day every year and I like to see how many of my titles from the previous year I have read). I had to do a workaround where I tag all of the books that I own as "read, unread, reading" in order to sort a chart by both where I got it and where I'm at in the reading process. Would be cool to be able to sort by a main feature (i.e., read status is already some of the metadata), plus then additional tags or something.

Have you seen the chart on the "Owned Books" stats page and then this post: https://roadmap.thestorygraph.com/requests-ideas/posts/tag-statistics-read-to-read

Nadia yes- I love that chart! I use it a lot - I think the other post gets closer to what I’m looking for - just a way to sort out the read/unread so that I can see what’s going on when I bulk buy books for any reason or if I get them from a specific place or something. I also tag some of my books as “reference books” which are more like…dictionaries, cookbooks, trail / hiking books - so I can keep track of all of my books but not include them in read/unread status, which is part of the reason that I made custom charts…just would like to be able to make custom charts more specific? if that makes sense (but I love this app and this is such a minor want! you’re working on such cool stuff, truly)

spinningjenny Yes, it does. I'm going to merge this one into the tag one as I think that'd get at what you want! Thank you for your kind words.
