  • what are you dream quests?

    if you could pick any quest theme, what would it be? bonus points if you have a list you want to promote in anticipation of the next community quest vote! i would really love the following: • an anti ai/big tech quest! i feel like it makes sense for pagebound to have one, given its anti ai values. i've seen a couple lists about this nominated for the community vote and i'm always sad when they don't win! • a "books about books" nonfiction quest! the history of the book, books on libraries, books on writing and language and storytelling, etc etc. also very appropriate for the pagebound community! • a drama quest. like actual dramas, plays, theatrical scripts, the like. it's the only main literary form (prose, poetry, drama) we don't have a quest for yet!

    Boyhowdy I struggled to remember to pick this up! Which is weird, because when I did pick it up I generally had a good time? After about 25%ish I switched to audiobook and that helped me settle into it way better than how using my eye balls was going.

    The atmosphere of this book is bonkers. Morgenstern really knows how to set a stage and dress the players on it! The overall plot is very interesting & the cast of characters lovable. I do agree with others that it's a bit too long and a bit too boring for a book about magicians dueling. I definitely wanted more action, and longed for the game to be more central to the story.

    I do love a non-linear story to HECK, though, and this delivered on that front for me. I really enjoyed trying to anticipate why we were jumping to when and where we were, and I liked how it all came together in the end.

    I think this would be an incredible movie, and I really hope that the folks who had been working on it previously are able to do the thing.
