The Dystopia 2012 Challenge is being hosted by Bookish Ardour. You can sign up anytime through the last two weeks of December, and you don't have to be a blogger to join. Reviews are optional, but there is a review page set up for your reviews. There is a Must Reads page full of wonderful book suggestions to help you in your reading choices as well.
From the blog:

Extra Challenges
If you feel like that extra kick to your reading challenges here’s several you can choose from.
- World:Choose a country as your theme, reading only books from that country or where it’s the setting. For how high you go you can choose more than one country;
- Level Asocial to Soldier: Choose one country
- Level Soldier to Conditioned: Choose two countries
- Level Conditioned to end of Brainwashed: Choose three countries
- Level Totalitarian: Choose four countries.
- Gender Battle: Read books only by female or male authors. Another alternative is to read equal amounts of both.
Crossover Genres: Our Dystopia challenge also includes Post-Apocalypse and Ecotopia (environmentally dystopian).
I will participate at the Contagion level. I have a couple of books right now that are on my reading list for this year, and I will add as I go:

I'm going to join the challenge too - I've already challenged myself to read 52 books this year, so this'll be a fun extra kick in the pants to do it :)
