Help us select what the MR Literary Club will read in April 2018!

The category for this month is:

Region
South Asia (as chosen by vote)

Detailed nominating and voting guidelines can be found here.

Simply put, we first begin with a one-day vote to determine this month's region. Voting will close exactly one day from this post and each person has FIVE votes to use. This is the last region-choosing vote of this cycle, and the eligible regions not chosen will all be available to nominate from in the June Region Finale.

After, nominations will open for four days and each person may nominate up to two literary selections which will go automatically to the vote. Voting then opens for four days and each person votes by post, receives a number of votes equal to the number of nominations minus one and may give each nomination up to two votes. Any questions, feel free to ask.

We hope that you will read the selection with the club and join in the discussion.

Spoiler:

The floor is now open!
