POV: You become a shapeshifter and get recruited as a spy. You hate your new team almost as much as yourself but an illicit mission means that, if you don’t trust them, you’ll end up more alone than ever. P.S… stop trying to seduce your combat instructor #Questpit #Q #NA #S

HUNGER GAMES+FOREST RUNNERS+THE PRINCESS BRIDE It started as a simple love story: 1 spy, 1 gal, & 1 govt mind-control chip designed to wipe memories. Add out-of-control agents & a secret rebellion—plus betrayal & ptsd—and this meet just got a whole lot less cute. #QuestPit #Q #NA

A new member of the Extra-Terrestrial Collection Crew is tasked with traveling to earth to extract Nessie from Loch Ness. Seems simple enough, until the ship crashes and the shrink ray gun is damaged. The Alien reluctantly needs help from a local old fisherman. #questpit #YA #SF
