Poll

Please select the author you would like to read in November 2019. Poll ends 10/9/19.

Please note that if Mervyn Peake, Isaac Asimov, or Robertson Davies wins the poll, then there will not be a follow-up poll. This is because all 3 have a trilogy (and no other works) listed on James Mustich's list and we will read the first book in that author's trilogy if one of them win.

message 4: by Carol Ann (new)

Carol Ann Asimov seems to be winning. I must reserve now! :) (And if Austen wins, I don't need to worry because I have ALL of her books already.)
