With respect to the "dripping" idea, I use Calibre to read my pinboard
bookmarks via this recipe:

You can set a "max_articles" to pull at a time. This allows me to add URLs
to "read later" via the pinboard API and then run the Calibre script every
time I want to have a "book" of articles to read. Then, when I'm reading
the "book" on my {insert device here}, I can just skip to the next article
if I don't want to read it.

I'm not saying this solution would work exactly for your use case, but I've
found it to be very helpful in decoupling the identification of something
to read from the actual reading.

Yours,
John B.
