How about a run off vote of the top two books?

They often do those if the votes between #1 and #2 end up really close.

"So I see" said the blind man.
So to make sure, the day before the vote is ended, I should change my vote to Bad Pharma. There are more votes in the bottom 7 than the top 2. Enough at the bottom to change the top.


It is an excellent book, therefore my selection. However, I do not think it will be chosen... I am a messed up ENTJ :)

Krakatoa and Snowball were both excellent. Tough choices.
If we were going to do a runoff, I'd probably include the top 3 since #2 and #3 are close together, but frankly, #1 is already far enough in the lead that I don't think a runoff would make much difference.
