In the case of a tie vote, I will be making the choice of which eBook we read from the eBooks that are tied for first place.

I voted for 1 of the tied books. Both look good, and someday, I plan to read them both. Darn TBR books are piling up again.

Maybe he is thinking about non-fiction being less subjective and open to random interpretation than fiction? Criticism will be more along the lines of "I liked/disliked it because (specific reasons)" instead of what the symbolism or whatever evoked in the individual reader. A change will do us good, as the song says, and I'm looking forward to a non-fiction selection.
