So, I've read/heard a few times that not everyone can see the scenes playing out in their heads while they read books and that it does not, in fact, seem like watching a movie being created reel by reel.
I personally cannot read books without forming at least a vague outline of what the characters and the world look like. Honestly, I think majority of readers have some form of imaginary theatre going on while they read a book which makes me think that what I read/heard is untrue. But what better place to gain enlightenment than this wonderful guild of tree preservers? :D

I don't have titles for the levels but I came up with this order! Except for the last one, it could also be "took you long enough" 🤭
Another fun thing would be to read at least one book related to the level of the emoji that I'm achieving. To achieve the vampire one, read at least one vampire novel alongside the other books for that level (others could be random)..but it's very open to interpretation.
I've been thinking about self motivation to read my books that are on my TBR or Interested lists but aren't on any quest lists! The badges really help motivate me and I wanted to make a reward system everyone can have access to! I thought it would be fun to create a DIY emoji reward system! You can keep track of books you've read (again books that aren't on quests) and add an emoji to your page or update us on your journey in the comments! Everyone can participate, create their own experience, and enjoy! Feel free to create your own system in the comments so you can keep yourself motivated or you can borrow mine!
I made mine a little journey through space!

I am moontea. I enjoyed throwing knives as a child. My cat has extremely long toe fluff. I have an antique postcard collection. I love pumpkin pie and sweet potato pie. Onetime someone painted me and made me look extremely evil in the painting so I have it locked away in a closet.
(This is the same one I posted weeks ago but I posted too late and I think only one person saw)
More facts: I once wrote a diary for a year with dates using the French revolutionary calendar system

This reminds me of the time I was reading a romance book and several pages in one of the love interests was described as having a big beard, which completely clashed with my mental picture. Yet the author CONTINUED to mention it. It was a fantasy book in another world so I imagined fake beards were all the rage and that he was wearing a fake beard as fashion but did NOT have an actual beard. So, not only was I imagining him different but I was creating my own lore to justify what was happening in my brain 😅
