Is it considered fair play to try and post comments to influence the final result? Mods?

Indeed. But I don't think that will be the case on the final day of voting.

Middlemarch lost a 5 vote lead, and now it's on par with Poe's book.

We have just a few hours left. I've added the leader to the bookshelf, but just one vote (or maybe two!) can swing this one. It's neck and neck, so I'm not announcing the winner until tomorrow :)

Exciting!!

This poll ends 11:59PM PDT so we still have just over 8 hours left (I think the UK is 7 hours ahead, so I won't be awake when it closes :))

So if you haven't yet voted, PLEASE do so!

I guessed you might, because I checked that you voted for Middlemarch.
