    A few days ago I took the task of classifying my readings for those two years in a tier list (no, not Tier Maker because it wouldn’t let me create an account, I resorted to Lomolist) and decided to create this post, in order to discover similar books (not completely identical or that have the same level of quality, but that give me similar vibes).

    To make this easier, I’ve decided to include the high concept of each of my favorite books. (For those who don’t know, high concept refers to summarizing the plot of a movie in a single sentence and exploiting the idea to its last drop by basing it on that sentence).

    Before you start suggesting, some considerations:

    * It has to be available in Spanish.
    * In case you recommend a series, it must be complete.

    My favorites:

    * ***And Then There Were None*** by Agatha Christie: a group of people completely different from each other are united by being targets of a serial killer or part of the group of suspects.
    * ***Animal Farm*** by George Orwell: social criticism told in the form of a fable with talking animals.
    * ***Crooked House*** by Agatha Christie: the protagonist must investigate the murder of the patriarch/matriarch of a dysfunctional/eccentric family.
    * ***1984*** by George Orwell: a great dystopian novel.
    * ***Millennium Trilogy*** by Stieg Larsson: a smart, badass woman with a dark and troubled past and her Watson investigate crimes and kick the bad guys’ asses.
    * ***Gone Girl*** by Gillian Flynn: a thriller told from two perspectives.
    * ***Six of Crows Duology*** by Leigh Bardugo: fantasy starring a group of charismatic antiheroes.
    * ***Spiderlight*** by Adrian Tchaikovsky: novel that tells a plot of its own while poking fun at the clichés and tropes of more famous novels or genres (not exclusively fantasy).
    * ***Iliad*** & ***Odyssey*** by Homer: (fantasy or not) about a great war and a journey with many difficulties.
    * ***Don Quixote*** by Miguel de Cervantes: comedy that mocks a popular genre of novels from centuries past.
    * ***Gulliver’s Travels*** by Jonathan Swift: satire disguised as fantasy where the author mocks human flaws.
    * ***Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus*** by Mary Shelley: horror and science fiction where a scientist suffers the consequences of an experiment gone horribly wrong.

    I look forward to your suggestions!
