Haha... once you accept the fact that a To Read pile is really just a "To Choose From" pile, all is good again...
Ooh I like that. My to-read pile is most definitely a 'To Choose From' pile.
Yes - I agree, a To Choose From pile. Hard choice - I already have Make Room! Make Room! on my Kindle, but I think The Darkness looks good and it's cheap on Amazon. Choices!!
Make Room! Make Room! would have my vote (it's been on my to-read list for a while), but when there's a book by Terry Pratchett listed I HAVE to vote for it!
Make Room obviously isn't going to win, but if you plan on reading it in the future, like when I keep nominating it until I get the sympathy vote :), it is the Kindle Daily Deal right now, $1.99-http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/re...
I think once a book has lost several times it is probably time to move on. :-P Remember The Last Man?
I don't remember that one. Maybe we should collect all the books that just couldn't win no matter how many times they were nominated, and vote on those! Or not...

The Last Man got nominated over and over again ( think it was in 6 polls!) until we did a pity read/"bonus read", lol.LINK
This month's vote was easy for me, I only am interested in one book, the rest... I'm kind of, anti-interested in. :-P
It doesn't look like many people read it...but it might be cool to keep a list of the nominations, maybe for those who are on the hunt for books to read. I think we tend to pick good books...it sometimes just isn't the right time to read them.
The lists are all still there if anyone wants to look at old ones. Polls are probably a good place to review nominations.
Oh you know what would be a good idead is to take all the books that didn't win in previous polls, and make a poll for those!
