    Unfortunately one of the weaker dystopian classics I have read, despite having one of the more intriguing and in my opinion realistic ideas of a future dystopian society. The clever prose and powerful message are weighed down by the disjointed pacing and lack of characterization. Great concept, underwhelming execution.

  • Leave Your Recommendations Here!

    Welcome, welcome to the recommendations post! This is where you can share your requests for additions to the quest, however please read this first!

    Please check to see if your book choice has already been recommended. If you can see your choice in the comments here, give it an upvote so I can see where the most interest is for the additions.

    If your suggestion hasn't been recommended, then leave a comment with the title AND author.

    Please Note: Not every recommendation is guaranteed to be added to the quest, even if it fits the criteria.

    Criteria for Books

    Books must be fiction novels or novellas (no short stories, poetry, etc), available in English.

    Climate issues MUST be the main focus of the book. It doesn’t have to follow someone actively trying to solve climate issues, but the plot should be happening because of climate change.

    Books where the climate issue isn’t the core reason behind the plot will not fit this criteria, eg. Tusks of Extinction is listed as clifi, and is, but it does not qualify for this quest as the main focus is on poaching.

    For future additions, I would love to include more diverse books. If you have a suggestion that you are not 100% sure fits the criteria, but is a unique and diverse voice you don’t see represented yet, please leave it below anyway, making sure to note that you are unsure on the criteria.

    At the moment I am trying to focus on novels that lean more literary or sci-fi, rather than fantasy. You are free to recommend any genre, but bear in mind I might not look to these until later on in the development of the quest.

    If you would like to be nosy and see what is on my to-read list for the quest, šŸ”—here it is!

    Thank you so much everyone!

    I believe somebody else pointed it out in this forum, but I have been wondering if Ford is about Henry Ford or Freud. I’m moving forward and leaning toward Freud, especially since there’s so much focus on the negativities of human connection and families outside the ā€œideal creationā€.

    What are you reading right now? šŸ‘€

    There are many people on this app I have yet to meet. But unfortunately I cannot go onto everybody’s profile and see what they’re reading. So I would like to ask you: what are you reading at the moment? And how do you like it?

    I am currently reading:

    Bury our bones in the midnight soul: I’m liking this a lot so far, I’m 37 percent through. The writing is pleasant and smooth, but unfortunately my attention has gone to another book I’m currently reading…

    As good as dead: the 3rd book in the a good girls guide to murder series. I loved the first two and finished them so fast, I devoured them lol XD I am loving this as well, unfortunately i am just a tiny bit hesitant to read more and finish because I don’t want this series to finish hehe.

    The poppy war: the book that has been stealing my attention, it’s not what I expected so far, but I’m constantly at the edge of my seat in preparation for a twist to happen. I’m loving this as well

    So for me, reading is going quite well, but how about you? šŸ‘€

  • A Friendly Reminder Re: Spoilers

    Just a friendly reminder!

    Do be mindful of your book forum posts. If you're sharing a thought that sounds arbitrary and holds no danger of spoiling anything about the book, post away without clicking the Includes spoilers? tab.

    However, if you're going to mention something specific about a character, if you're quoting a phrase or a whole paragraph, may I please request you DO click the Includes spoilers? tab?

    Thank you very much!

    Avoided the forum of this book with deliberate focused effort despite how I itched to know what other people were thinking because of any possibility of seeing accidental spoilers disguised as theories (like how I got accidentally spoiled by a big brain theory for The Fifth Season) and I want to be so shocked when I find out what really happened and I refuse to let that be taken away from me. I'm so strong honestly clap for me
