I added my vote to Alphabet, it's now in tied 6th place.

I was already wondering about that. Usually it is livelier here in the re-reads. (I voted for everything I haven't read yet, just to be on the safe side ^^')


It is because I'm still undecided and yet to vote :)

The current top 6: I read 3, not interested in the rest.

We usually have a little over a 100 votes, now we have 60.

It is trivial if one have funds to pay for the services of a Russian troll company :)
