Classics are perfect for all occasions! More seriously, not all classics are literary fiction. I, Robot, for example.

Shockingly, Classics is leading the poll.
Not all classics are good. Ethan Frome (for example) is garbage.

If we do have classics again, I'm going to be nominating more science fiction or some fantasy.

I'm really hoping Romance pulls through, as I feel February is the best month for it. The only other month where Romance might work is April (Spring), but February is definitely the perfect time thanks to Valentine's Day.

But if classics wins, you can help nominate more science fiction.

I'm up for some Vonnegut as I've got nearly all his major novels now.

If you're so eager to read science fiction or fantasy - why not propose it directly?

Because I proposed Free-for-all and I was hoping it would win. Looks like it won't win this time.

This is a really interesting result as our first multiple choice vote. Look at the spread of votes and how close it is. It's nail-biting action to be sure.

Yes it is! I'm enjoying it. I really like this Multiple Choice voting. We get the the "Open vs Close" and "Multiple vs Single Choice" poll results in about an hour to an hour and a half!!
