I feel like 13 year old me would have enjoyed this way more than 18 year old me…
It was definitely very cringey, but there were some really good interpretations of grief and toxic relationships throughout this book, which had bumped my rating up 😂

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, 🔗here it is!
Thank you so much everyone!

The climate is intrinsic to life on Earth. What happens when it changes? These books examine our reality and imagined futures, both dystopian and utopian, to offer us words of warning, but also hope.

From stolen centuries to days that echo themselves, these books breathe time travel into the weave, unraveling the seams of time and lingering in the threads that slip free.

“But I expect you to return this book to me in a timely manner. That is, unless Sidra and Maisie want it. Then they can keep it.”
What a guy… I love him already 😂

Well, it’s definitely botanical horror…
This was such a good book!!! I love CG Drews’ writing so much, it is so nostalgic and emotive, it really adds to the vibe of the book.
And don’t even get me started on the plot!! Absolutely crazy, I actually couldn’t put the book down. What a ride!!
