Does anyone else have an issue with the "search for a tag" feature in giveaways? No matter what I type in the search for a tag box, I get "Sorry, it looks like there are no active book giveaways. " I can click on one of the listed tags on the right side and view results, but if I click "more" to see more tags, any tags I click on, I also get the sorry, no results message, even though all the tags I'm clicking on have a number in parenthesis showing how many books are available under that tag.

Just wanted to update this thread. I heard back from Goodreads. The old tags have been retired. You can still search by genre using the browse by tag box, but there are considerably less genres than their were tags so you can no longer search for specific types of novels any longer, like dystopian or apocalyptic fiction.
