Not going to belabor this, but that's my thinking on polls.

It's irrelevant to me. We're arguing aesthetics in which there are no right or wrong answers, only opinions. People can say how much they love whatever book, but some books just don't hit me. Some books I don't really appreciate until many years later. That's the nature of art.
I'm not casting a vote this round because I only read two of the titles in the list and didn't think they were better than a book that I didn't nominate because I didn't feel I had a wide enough experience in the decade to make a reasonable choice. I do believe I will be voting in all of the subsequent polls.
