Bullington wins latest poll, next round up

Issui Ogawa, The Lord of the Sands of Time
11 (6%)
Daniel Abraham, The Price of Spring
24 (13%)
Toni Morrison, Beloved
4 (2%)
Steve Erickson, Zeroville
14 (7%)
Jesse Bullington, The Sad Tale of the Brothers Grossbart
83 (47%)
Clive Barker, The Books of Blood (vols. 1-3)
9 (5%)
Brooks Hansen, The Chess Garden
6 (3%)
Iain M. Banks, The Use of Weapons
17 (9%)
Sherri Tepper, Beauty
4 (2%)
Ursula Le Guin, Changing Planes
4 (2%)


So with that, Jesse Bullington's upcoming debut novel, The Sad Tale of the Brothers Grossbart, will be reviewed shortly (hopefully this afternoon). The authors whose books received 10 votes or more were added to the new poll, along with several recent arrivals. Hopefully, these polls will encourage me to read through my ever-growing stack quicker, as even though I average close to 10 books read a week now, I sometimes get a dozen or two in a week's time.
