To delete items from your reading list just click on the page icon to the left of the story title.

Thanks, Februs. I tried everything but the left click. So simple that I felt like a moron when I first pulled it off.

If you open the item, there's also a button at the bottom of the story to add or remove from reading list, whichever is relevant. If you add or remove something by mistake, you can't toggle it back by using the icon next to the story title (at least not in Chrome browser) so in that case the easiest thing is just to go into the story and do it. (alternately, you can reload the story listing)
