I'm 30 and doing the challenge to pick up some of the "classics" that I hadn't gotten to yet. My book choices for the challenge tend to be the fairly well-known books, though I did find one to overlap with my Women in Genre Fiction challenge which was nice. Ultimately, I like to see how these books inspire and inform my favorites.


Pizzakarin, you'll be a good test subject then, for learning how old books works with young people. What are some of your all-time favorite SF books. I can't imagine a young person preferring old stuff to the exciting stuff that's coming out today.
