  • Why do you join a quest?

    With all the new quests dropping today (including the first installment of the genre starter packs), I'm curious. What inspires you to join a quest? Do you have certain criteria or do you just think "oooh pretty badge, must join"? 😂 For me, I've set the limit that I must have a genuine interest in at least 5 books in a quest to join it. That way I know I can at least obtain the lowest tier of badge, doesn't matter if it's a side or main quest. I feel like if there are less than 5 books in the quest that I want to/have read, it's probably not for me anyway. What do you think? Do you have a similar thought process or do you think about the quests completely differently?

    It was interesting how this was a mix of creative imagination and biographic writing. Made me wish someone would write a fantasy book loosely based this era!

    Okay, now can we get a proper Cleopatra retelling? Or some romance fantasy based on her era?

    Am so annoyed with the ending 😂 Felt like I wasted hours reading the book and then what for a cop-out? Was gonna let it pass but am just too annoyed so I had to just write that down.
