A bit late, but ok. If you have to make a choice between semantics or layout, always go for semantics. If labelled correctly, you can easily apply the layout you want. The other way round is not possible...
I personally use H1 for Book title, H2 for chapters and H3 for sections/sub-chapters/etc. Sometimes in an anthology I use H2 for the writer and H3 for the story title. If a story has multiple chapters, it would be H4.
Since I use this consistently, for me it is always very clear what it what.
