How should the "Readwise Items To Review" note-tool be used? #180

I go into the "Readwise Items To Review" note to see them. Then what? Do I create a new book note for each of them, copy over the contents and then update the "lastchecked" attribute? |

thats pretty much how i was using it. My problem is that i have a lot of readwise inputs i haven't processed yet and i want to process them starting from the oldest thing moving forward, so i use that note to simply tell me whats left to process and then when i process the oldest thing on the list then i update lastchecked which says that the items it will show have to be older than the date in the title of the notes. in looking at it, for some reason the note is no longer working for me with the lastchecked variable so I've modified it to be hard coded. same thing just no variable usage.
so if i finished processing
