How many taxonomy terms are too many in Drupal 7?

I have a website where I publish book reviews. For each book I publish 2-3 quotes from the book. I'm using the following fields as taxonomy, so that when a user clicks on them he/she can find more content of that category.

  • Book name
  • Author name
  • Publisher

Lets say, over the period of time, I add reviews of about 5000 books, then there will be 5000 taxonomy terms for "book name". Same for the other categories.

My question is, are these too many taxonomy terms for Drupal? Or is there a better way of doing this. All I'm trying to do is, when a user clicks on author's name, he/she can find more content from that author.

Thanks,

The existing title makes more sense.
