| I'm glad to see HP doing so well. And by well, of course I mean losing miserably |

I'm pretty sure she was being sarcastic (it was the only one without a vote at the time).
Pretty interesting group here, I think, with a strong Brave New World and the rest from series that have got other (more popular) entries. I went with LtUaE, though I must say that I enjoyed Goblet of Fire much more that Order of the Phoenix; I wonder if it got in so easily because it's the most recent, or what. |

| Voted Brave New World. Am pleasantly surprised that HP did not take over. |

Wow, tough luck for Silmarilion and HP. I think either would progress had they fallen in other categories  _________________ After years of disappointment with get rich quick schemes, I know I'm gonna get rich with this scheme. And quick! |

| Yeah, I would have liked for both of them to make it, but alas, their competition was just too great. |

I would have hoped Roger Ackroyd would get out of this. It's one of Christie's Best.
Alas, even I voted for LUE. |

| I should've nominated HP4. Then it wouldn't get crushed here. |

| this was a tough category -- I enjoyed Hp4 thoroghly... Douglas Adams if funny, and Brave New World is a classic. I havnt read the other 2, so maybe its even harder to choose for some. |

Oh not really. Brave New World was an awful book. And I'm not just saying that because of content...I am after all, a big fan of 1984.
I just thought that the idea was presented poorly.
And while I haven't read HP4, I read the first one and though it was awful. No way am I going to waste more time reading any of that tripe.
(Sorry if I offended anyone)
I haven't read of the 5th book, so for me it was LUE vs Christie. |
