BingoDOG - Genre Benders
- Beschrijving
- Genre benders don't fit neatly into one genre, but incorporate tropes from two or more different genres. Includes slipstream and interstitial fiction. This list was created to collect recommendations for the BingoDOG 2015 challenge, but anyone is welcome to contribute books.
