Apple Books incorrectly marking audiobooks as finished

I have several audiobooks that I listen to at one time and flip between listening to one or listening to another. Just in the past week I noticed that two of the audiobooks were marked as finished when I was only 80% through them. I had to go back in the library to find them and mark as still reading. Please fix this issue. I’ve noticed this happening often. Or give me an option for you to never mark any book as finished ever; unless I manually click the finished button under settings. Because the automatic way isn’t working.

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 15

I have experiencing this same issue for almost two years now. It happens to most of my audiobooks that I'm concurrently listening to. I have hundreds of audiobooks, which I have sorted into collections, but it's still an annoying hassle to go back into the collection and manually mark as still reading, so it shows back up on my Still Reading list. Also, audiobooks that I have added to Want to Read disappear randomly from the list, and I have to add them again.
