Would this work for 28. Read a book set in a "dark" (dystopian, evil, etc) world?

[Maddy]

I don't think so... The topic is dark and with fantasy elements but the setting itself is more contemporary -New York in 70s. If it were just a "dark" book then sure, but since it asks for a setting then I doubt it

[Annalisa]

I've been trying to find a book set in Australia or a dystopian novel I want to read and I'm failing. Everything I want to read my library doesn't have or there is a very long wait list. I'll keep looking eventually I'll find something.

[Maddy]

I could do Australia but dystopia is not my preferred genre

[Annalisa]

Let's wait and see what the rest of the team is reading before you claim another task. I'm sure you'll finish more than the 7 books you have claimed, (8 with the Red 7 if they don't overlap), but there isn't a rush. We are getting very to done with our uno hands.

I have a hold on my preferred Australia read, but who knows maybe I'll get it soon.

I found for the dark book. I'm about 90% sure it will work for a dystopia dark setting. If someone else reads for it I can hold off on finishing until April.

[Maddy]

Sure, we will see :)
I am pacing myself since there is so much time left, but I will finish them :D

@Annalisa
why not being green? its more than 50% green light and dark!

[Annalisa]

It looked more black than green to me. When that happens I check the captain’s group. They said not green and then another couple people came in and said green so it is green.
