why not adding a ListProperty to Author which holds the list of
genres for that
author? Of course, you need to keep it updated in each
Create/Update/Delete of books
associated with that author, but it would allow you to query just for
author.favgenre='sci-fi'.
Maybe it looks strange coming from the SQL world where you can Join
things and so on,
but I believe that it makes sense to work like that in the DataStore world...
