    "I've already read this book." Past tense "have read" means "finished reading." SAME THING!

        "I finished reading this book already" should have been accepted.

          Yes it should - I hope you used the "report" button to notify the Duo volunteers so they can add it to the system.

            'I'm done reading this book' should be accepted as well.
