Hi Rick,

In the sense of GTD, I prefer using prefixes for any GTD related tags,
e.g. *status* tags would be...

   - #reading
   - #next
   - #someday
   - #maybe

...all of which would tag themselves to *status*.
See: http://tbgtd.tiddlyspot.com (TWc)

Then you...

   - can more easily search for them simply by typing *#*
   - more easily spot them in the tag-bar
   - easily filter lists by iterating over all *status*-tags 
   <http://tiddlywiki.com/#FilterOperator%3A%20tag> or those with prefix 
   <http://tiddlywiki.com/#FilterOperator%3A%20prefix> #

Personally, I'd also use *A*, *B*, *C* as tags tagging to *order*, rather 
than fields.
That shows them at each book and you can click to get to the tiddler *order*
,
which could be an index of all books by order.

With TW5, you can also assign tag icons.

   - using *$:/TagManager* which you find in the tags tab
      - you can assign something like that ✓ icon 
      <http://tb5.tiddlyspot.com/#Core%20Images%20And%20Inline%20Stylesheets> 
      to each status
      - that way, you quickly spot a status tag
   - personally, I would use author names as tags and have them tag to 
   *author*
      - so, you could do the same thing with *author*
      - I wish there was a generic person icon though, even though not used 
      by the core
   
With the all new xlist <http://xlist.tiddlyspot.com> you can easily create 
indexes, e.g.

   - all *filter:"[all[]]" *by *each:order*
   - All By Groups @ xlist <http://xlist.tiddlyspot.com/#All%20By%20Groups>
      - all *filter:"[genre[non-fiction]]"* by 
   *groups:"[[status]tagging[]]"*
      - (assuming you would start using tags for statuses)
      - Tagging Instead Of List Field @ xlist 
      <http://xlist.tiddlyspot.com/#Tagging%20Instead%20Of%20List%20Field>
   - or using fields: *filter:"[genre[non-fiction]]"* by *each:read*
      - Match Field — Each Field Value @ xlist 
      
<http://xlist.tiddlyspot.com/#Match%20Field%20%E2%80%94%20Each%20Field%20Value>
   
Best wishes, Tobias.
