I would support an infinite variety of tags so that I could avoid looking at titles of books that in which I have no interest.

In addition to John's suggestion, I would also embrace subforums for [insert device name, e.g., Kindle]-only offerings with the proviso that if a book subsequently became available for more than just one device, the post could be moved to a multidevice subforum.

And if neither is going to fly (which is what I suspect), then I'd ask for a rule that requires the thread title to include the information or at least that the information be listed in bullet form at the very beginning of the message, before description/title information.

As to your suggestion about discerning it from the title, On Earth As It is In Heaven could be apocalyptic vampire novel with greek gods tormenting satanists, as easily as it is a christian novel.
