Rereads and New Read+

Start a reread run, earn tiered loot colors, and keep reread reactions hidden from first-time readers.

New Read+ is Squabble's reread mode. When you finish a book and start it again, you begin a new run — and each run earns a richer loot-tier color, turning rereads into a small collectible achievement. It works alongside the guild's spoiler protection so your reread reactions never spoil a first-timer.

Starting a reread

When you complete a book, its detail screen offers a New Read+ option.

  1. Finish the book

    Reach the end of a book, or mark it complete.

  2. Open the book's details

    Tap the book in your library to open its detail screen.

  3. Start a New Read+

    Tap New Read+ to begin your next run. Your run number increases by one each time.

The loot tiers

Each run number maps to a rarity tier with its own color, climbing from run 1 to run 10 and beyond:

  • Run 1 — Common
  • Run 2 — Uncommon
  • Run 3 — Rare
  • Run 4 — Epic
  • Run 5 — Legendary
  • Run 6 — Mythic
  • Run 7 — Artifact
  • Run 8 — Transcendent
  • Run 9 — Ultimate
  • Run 10 and up — Ascended

Your current tier color shows up across Squabble — on the book's tile in your library, and on your progress dots on the Quest Board, where a reread swaps in the tier color and an "R" run badge so guildmates can see you're on another lap.

Reread comments stay hidden from first-readers

Rereads add a second spoiler layer on top of the usual timestamp gate. A comment you write on a reread is a reread comment, and it's hidden from any guildmate who is still on their first read of the book — even if they've listened past the point it's pinned to.

When you're on run 2 or higher, the comment composer shows a Reread comment toggle, on by default, so your second-lap insights are gated automatically. First-time readers never see the toggle, because their comments have nothing extra to hide. A reread comment carries a small Reread badge — and only guildmates who are eligible to see it ever see that badge.
