I think it's completely stupid to vote for a book you haven't read. But that's me. My votes will have to fall into these ones for which I have read. For those scoring at home, I'm a white, male, mid 40s. I have a bachelor in science in Computer Science. I'm also an architecture undergrad dropout, a geography masters dropout. I read a lot of fiction in the contemporary and literary area, but quite a bit of fantasy and science fiction as well.
