  • Welcome all time travelers!

    Hi everyone! I’m Sasha (@sashareads). Putting this quest together has felt a bit like tending to a tiny book‑baby, and I’m so excited to finally share it with you. I hope you’ll adore it as much as I do.🥰

    About the quest The Kaleidoscope of Time dives into worlds where time doesn’t behave the way we expect - loops, pockets, displacement, and intentional travel across eras. Because it stretches across so many genres, some books will feel instantly like your thing and others might not - and that’s completely okay. You’ll find a mix of YA and adult titles across historical fiction, speculative fiction, literary fiction, romance, dystopian, fantasy, mystery, thrillers, and plenty of genre‑blending, all threaded with a touch of sci‑fi.

    If you’d like to read some of the books that helped make the subgenre what it is today, then you should go for The Time Ship: A Chrononautical Journey by Enrique Gaspar, The Time Machine by H.G. Wells, A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court by Mark Twain, Kindred by Octavia E. Butler and Outlander by Diana Gabaldon.

    Personally I’ve especially enjoyed Kindred by Octavia E. Butler (Historical Fiction), Piranesi by Susanna Clarke (Fantasy), Love Lethal, Death Divine by Jelena Dunato (Fantasy Romance), The Austen Affair by Madeline Bell (Historical Romance), The Everlasting by Alix E. Harrow (Fantasy Romance), and On the Calculation of Volume I by Solvej Balle (Literary Fiction)

    Quest recommendations I’ll be taking suggestions through this post: Quest Recommendations. Please give it a read before sharing your recs.

    We’re all passionate about our favorite time travel stories, and I’d truly love to hear yours. However, recommending a book doesn’t guarantee it’ll be added, even if it’s popular and/or fits the criteria.

    Let’s get questing! 🕰️

  • On Being Different: What It Means to Be a Homosexual (Penguin Classics)
    Thoughts from 19% (Foreword/page 13)

    We were going to the movies—Logan’s Run—and in front of us in line were two young gay men. They were holding hands. I was maybe eleven years old—old enough to be aware, painfully so, of being different from other boys. My mother glared at the gay men in line, shook her head, and said, “They’re weird,” to my father, and put a protective hand on my shoulder and pulled me closer to her. While my parents could only see perverted weirdos—not out of malice; it was the only thing their upbringing allowed them to see—I saw a future for myself.

    Dan Savage talking about how he felt looking at a gay couple in public is exactly why it’s so important for there to be representation and for there to be more openly queer people. While his mother’s reaction was negative and she was quick to try and push her son away from the couple, this small gesture of two men holding hands meant everything to him. That it was normal, that it was possible, that he too could have that one day. That while he might be “different”, there were other people like him in the world and he wasn’t alone. It’s also profound that, even though his mother talked negatively about these people in front of them, Dan Savage just focused on how positively that made him feel.

  • Which books would you recommend?

    I want to make some progress on this quest and have a library card so looking to borrow some new books! This is a long list though so which ones would you recommend? I’m currently reading Mr Wrong Number and I’ve already read The Rom-Commers, The Dating Plan, Love Theoretically and The Spanish Love Deception!
