This challenge was hosted by Dark Faerie Tales. The sign-up post was here and it contained a couple of links to get you started on what steampunk is, exactly. The sign-up post and this blog have a compiled list of a few steampunk works. You could post your reviews here and everyone's completed lists can be consulted here.

I chose the "Gaslight" level (6 books), so I would say I completed this challenge since I read 7 books. I wish I had read more, since many steampunk books I had in my TBR pile still remain there. I am so undisciplined, lol. But I kinda lost my motivation to read for this challenge mid-year, so these last three months I didn't even read anything for the challenge. Too bad, but maybe I'll read these books next year. I don't plan to sign up to any challenge, but maybe I'll make my own personal challenge.

Epá, não foi esse nível que escolhi, mas foi o que atingi também---li exactamente 7 livros, tal como tu. :)
ResponderEliminarBtw, tens de ler o The Map of Time. Tipo, já.
Lol, acho que a nossa motivação andou pela hora da morte... xD Podíamos repetir a dose no próximo ano, para ler os que faltam, mas sem inscrever em desafios, que já vimos que não resulta. :P
EliminarEu sei, eu sei... estava superanimada o ano passado para o ler, mas este desafio, ironicamente, matou-me a vontade. Agora que já acabou é que o quero ler outra vez. xD
