Well - not going too well for my selection.

Nothing left to do but barrack for Quo Vadis and Ethan Frome.
I'd have given The Good Earth a vote if the poll was multiple choice.

If anyone is interested in reading The Good Earth anyway, Kobo has an 80% off coupon for Cyber Monday on Open Road ebooks.

Well it looks like it's I, Robot and Ethan Frome.

With the Cyber Monday sales, The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie and The Good Earth were both down to approx $2. I bought both.

If that's not too absurd: you could read it in German.

No, that's not too absurd. But I can't find it in German either (no ebook and no pbook). Only in English, and only as paper books.

Here 'tis. Sorry for the delay. Been kind of busy behind the scenes as we prepare for our next contest.
