I guess if one reads only a definite set of genres and subgenres it might make sense. My tastes are a bit too eclectic for this, and I've amassed too much stuff.

Yes I can already see this may be a problem, figuring out a way to label something with any meaning but without being too specific is proving challenging.
Also I can't figure out how to search for data in a custom column. I've created the column and named it Book Themes, I've created a list (just in a word document) of phrases I am going to use, Ghost, Creature horror, Mystery, Location horror etc and I can add these no problem. I can also click on these phrases in the side panel of a book and it will bring up all books with the same theme. But can I get the search bar to search just this custom column, so instead of having to find an initial book with Location Horror and clicking on that say is there some way of typing in Location Horror in the search bar and have it only search my custom column?
At the moment if I type in say Location Horror it will find the book I added Location Horror to but it will also find any book where Location Horror is mentioned in the text anywhere
Ignore that last paragraph I've found how to do that - Advanced Search, drop down menu then you can select your custom column for me #theme guess you could do #theme in the search bar as well
