Hi everyone, I tried to check if anyone has made a post like this and I couldn’t find one so apologies if I missed it. I feel like there are already a ton of quests for fantasy sub genres like found family in fantasy or cozy fantasy but I feel like we’re missing a quest for urban fantasy! I would love if someone could make a quest for it or maybe even a side quest or a starter pack. Thoughts?

I am so sick of books masquerading as enemies-to-lovers just because it sells. I know these tropes are just a marketing tactic at this point, but are there books out there that actually keep it alive? For reference, I mean something like The Cruel Prince or even something as lighthearted as You Deserve Each Other. Please try to avoid books that are overtly spicy in nature. Thanks!

i was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for books they feel like would be similar to the movies produced by studio ghibli?

i don't read a lot of traditional fantasy, but ponyo and spirited away are two of my favorite & most memorable movies from my childhood— i would absolutely love to read pieces with the same "vibe".

I’m rereading while listening to the playlist I made for the trilogy and have to stop just to get mad at myself for the diabolical song choices I did

Hello! Please give your queer horror book recommendations below! I accept indie and traditionally published books into the quest as long as the book is listed on PB or can be added to PB’s library. We are sorely in need of books with reps including: Indigenous MCs/authors, Pacific Islander MCs/authors, Intersex MCs/authors, Asexual MCs/authors, and Non-Binary MCs/authors. I’m always looking for books with diverse representation so please still feel free to recommend a book even if it doesn’t include a character/author with the representation above, just note that books with those representations will likely be added first because, well, I don’t have a lot/any books with them in it listed in the quest and I would like this quest to be as diverse as possible.

Horror has a somewhat loose term here (as mentioned in my introduction post) as publishers don’t always list books with horror elements as “horror”. So we’ll say horror and horroresque books (if you can squint and call it horror, then you’re welcome to include it as a recommendation). There’s not a lot of rules to recommending books but here are some: 1.) Obviously all books recommended here should be queer in some way or shape (“hetero” asexuals are still queer). 2.) It should be a well written book in the manner of it not being full of simple spelling and grammar mistakes. I will likely be reading every single book that gets added to this quest but please don’t recommend a book that couldn’t be submitted as a creative writing paper in a school project. Don’t subject me or fellow PBers to that. 3.) Look to see if your recommendation has already been recommended below before commenting. I don’t want this post to be flooded with the same book being recommended 10 times. 4.) Please tell me what rep is included in the book if it’s not already obvious from the book blurb.

I may not include all recommendations into the quest but I will at least look at your recommendations and will consider it (especially if it has a lot of upvotes/comments). Other than that, GO CRAZY!
