We had an amazing turnout at the preliminary vote, consisting of 335 total votes and at least 47 participants!
This is the final vote and will determine what book we will read. Up for the vote are the four most popular books from the previous vote, as well as a few others (Moby Dick, Gravity’s Rainbow, and The Bible to be specific). You are allowed to vote for as many of the books as you want. As with the previous poll, this one will be open for 24 hours, so act quickly!
In this thread, we should also determine when we are starting the chosen book, form an agreeable reading schedule, and create a download URL for those who read on ebooks. If the book is in a language other than english (ex: Crime and Punishment), we should also agree on a translation. If you do not speak english, lo siento, está en su propio.
I bought Gravity's Rainbow last week and i've already read DQ, C&P, Moby Dick and IJ.
So please anons, do me a favour, don't make me buy Blood Meridian.
Vote GR, you know it's the right thing to do.
Love, user.

I think out of sheer practicality we're gonna have to push the start date to early February at the earliest. Even if we can decide today which edition to read, some people are gonna have to order their copy online (I just assume people are willing to shill out for a physical book while I know a good chunk of us read on their computers or tablets/e-readers).
As for a reading schedule, we'll have to see once the voting is over but generally 30-40 pages a day is a good pace where we can get it done by the month while also allowing us time and room to discuss the passages.

I was trying to say that "you are on your own"? I don't see any problem with that. Then again, my Spanish is a bit rusty
Ethan Walker
Needlessly harsh from my part. You are on your own would be "Estas solo"
