LoT Book Club Poll

I've opted to really mess things and use my admin powers to increase the number of poll options - so let's see if this yields anything.

Oh and I allowed multiple votes, so you can pick more than one

The ranking of my choices would be:

1. Angle of Repose
2. Cadillac Desert
3. Devil in the White City

Looks like Time Traveler is going to win.

It's a good read. Confusing till you get the hang of it.
