Describe the issue

Some genre tags are not being parsed correctly. See below for more details. Thank you!!

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Choose audible.com in the match tab
  2. Type in "B0797YBP7N" for a book example or a book called "12 Rules for life"
  3. Observe that one of the tags is "Relationships, Parenting & Personal Development" instead of 2 separate tags: "Relationships" and "Parenting & Personal Development" respectively.

This is coming from audible and isn't a parsing issue. You can see that audible considers that a genre: https://api.audible.com/1.0/catalog/products/B0797YBP7N?response_groups=category_ladders

{
  "ladder": [
    {
      "id": "18574784011",
      "name": "Relationships, Parenting & Personal Development"
    },
    {
      "id": "18574800011",
      "name": "Personal Development"
    },
    {
      "id": "18574809011",
      "name": "Personal Success"
    }
  ],
  "root": "Genres"
}
