I'm interested in a run-off vote. I'm guessing A Town would win.

Scroll down to the bottom of this page and it will show you the time, which is GMT + 1, and then "The time now is ...." whatever it is when you are reading this message.

Oh thanks. It was GTM at first and that's why I was so confused. So we have more than 9 hours to go.

With 4 minutes left, it looks like A Town Like Alice is our winner.

Congratulations, A Town Like Alice! It's early morning here and I finished its very first chapter last night. The language is not too hard for me. Hope I'll finish it before the due day.

Looking forward to reading A Town Like Alice. It was my first choice and it's next on my reading list.
Will read Stardust as well, but not right now. |

ALICE! You've made up for that time where I voted for On the Beach and it didn't make it. I get to read and discuss Shute. Woohoo!
I've never read him. I hope he isn't dreadful. |

He isn't dreadful. It's just that he not an author that can do romance. That's why he should not have won.

Never mind: those who want to try him out/like him already can read it, and those who don't can get on with their TBR heap and come back next month!

Stardust is an adventure, so let's nominate it for March. If it does not win, it's a classic tale, so it fits in with April, so again, let's try to get Stardust nominated. Stardust won the Mythpoeic Award for best adult fairy tale. That means it qualifies for June.
