Hey, why not steal a feature from Webnovel? Give readers the ability to "heart" (like) tags for novels on their synopsis page, and potentially suggest authors tags, which the author might have missed. This would enable authors to see what genres and themes are a hit with their readers, and potentially gain more readers by adopting suggested tags, that they might have missed.

Furthermore, the data set built from this system could be used in a recommender ML algorithm to suggest new and related novels to readers based on their history of liked genres, tags, and ratings.

I feel like we had that discussion already :blob_hmm_two: But anyway:
Readers can already suggest tags in the comments. We're notified about those so will see anyway and can decide then. I think that's less complicated than a new feature (considering that about a million other things are already pending anyway). There's the problem that only 25 tags are allowed as well.
The heart-system does sound nice though and I'm all for better recommendations. I think the heart-system could help there indeed if the 'gravity' of the tags was included.
