A
Diana descobriu-o, a
Slayra adoptou-o, e eu agora copio-o. Este desafio Adult Dystopia é especial porque a razão que me fez aderir foi o facto de não ter tempo limite. Isso mesmo, para o completar "basta" ler todos os livros da lista. É um incentivo, mas sem a parte da pressão de o concluir (que normalmente é o que me faz ficar sem vontade de ler os livros em questão).
Distopia. É um género (?) que gosto bastante, e que pode ser bastante versátil (imensos livros diferentes caem nesta categoria), e já que a lista inclui imensos livros que já tenho na minha lista de livros para ler, porque não tentar oficializar a coisa? Ao mesmo tempo fico com imensas sugestões de obras dentro do género.
Eis a lista, e risquei os livros que já li. Quanto à conclusão deste desafio, vemo-nos quando nos virmos!
