Maybe like reviewing a mood on a book, there could a section to review a trope (like tick a box of it features enemies to lovers, or morally grey characters). And then someday be able to search by trope, kind of like how you can search by mood now.

I would love having the trope added to the review section similar to how they have the trigger warnings and this would help prevent the issue that GRs has with their tag list where if someone adds a space it is classified as a different tag and clutter up that section. Also would allow authors to put their own if they claim the book/page.
That would be very cool! The reading survey should be capable of doing this for now, but you would need to make sure your answers were very specific/narrowed down to the genre and moods you wanted, then pop the trope you're looking for in the free text box and generate some new recs based on that :-)
Abbie Maybe some kind of public tags and you feed the tropes from tvtropes.org into it as a start?
(Realistically this means A LOT of work as it would work similar to the tagging system on AO3 and they have many, many tag wranglers to merge tags to keep it working and clean.)
