I grew up on fantasy and science fiction and prefer reading genre to literary or non-fiction. As Candy said, with the blending of genres and the still sectioned sections of a physical bookstore, yes, it can be difficult to find books by your favorite authors. I've seen some in-store kiosks where you can look up a book by title or author, but they haven't embraced the fluidity of tagging. Which means I can't search for a book that has been labeled with 'strong heroine', 'dragon', 'romance', 'blonde' and 'Texas'. But that's okay, I know I need to read Candy's latest book to get all that, and more. :)
Let them have tags
