EDIT: Voting is now open. Please place your votes at the end of the thread.
The decision was made to go with the theme of "Fantasy Classics."
I'd like to select differently this time, if that's OK.
Pick three books, but please only choose one that you nominated. The other two must be nominated by other people.
This time the votes will be tallied as an "absolute democracy." Meaning whichever book gets the most votes wins, instead of making your first choice, alternate choice, etc. like before.
Voting closes on March 16th (although I may extend it a little longer depending on how many votes we've gotten).
