It's not a big deal either way as long as you can create your own shelves and are not forced to only use the 3 options.

I am trying to test it to see, but cannot figure out the spot to add custom shelves so far.

I see the tagging option on a book I added, but not a way to have tag shelves, so the site wouldn't suit my purpose. I section my books off differently than the options they seem to have. I haven't played with the site much but from what I can it keeps things pretty basic.

So, if I understand correctly, creating a tag called "wishlist" would address that particular issue? But for the other issue, you're looking a being able to group books by multiple tags, e.g. one "shelf" might be: "wishlist", "debut authors", "poetry", "African" - is that more or less right?
