I noticed since I no longer share my reading list that bookmarks are no longer updated on the stats list of the story in question.

It appears in their stats list when you first add it, but any further updates to what you bookmark don't.

I am not sure if this was intended since the name does appear in the list when you add it. Personally, I do not mind an author seeing that I am reading their story. I just don't want people to have an easy-to-find list of everything that I am reading and everything I have read...

But in the author's stats it did not update:

When I add a story to my reading list, it does enter the list as 1/**.

It just may be because you have chosen to hide your reading list from the public.

EDIT: I think that there might have been some offsets in the process, so probably not an intended feature(?) but probably not a bug, either. Well, I'd think of it as a bug, though.

My idea on the matter is, it should either not appear in the list at all, or it should update when bookmarking...
I would prefer if the bookmarks update in the author's list though. Because seeing that people read your story can motivate.

Hello, this is intended. It's suppose to hide it when you add it too as long as you added it to a reading list which was hidden. I just tested it and it seems to hide it properly.

I was thinking I was seeing things that were not there, so I just removed readded a story to a hidden list (all my lists are hidden) and it shows up in their list as. further bookmark updates won't show.
