Subject: ducks read? vote?

So here is what I'm reading as Ideas for a group read  and below I have a proposition for voting. I f you want to go with the voting proposal, just post 3 choices under subject line V list:

Free For All: read what you want , post and interact (FFA)

TRP:
Against the Day-

V-

Raymond Chandler :
1) Farewell My Lovely

2)The Big Sleep

3) The Long Goodbye

Ishmael Reed, Mumbo Jumbo

Wurlitzer: Nog

Bolano: 2666

Henry Adams: The Education of Henry Adams

Joyce: Ulysses

Heller: Catch 22

Ellison: Invisible Man

I suggest we try an instant runoff  with participants voting for 3 favorites in order.  If first choice less than top 2 vote-getters  then your 2nd choice  counts as fist choice and so to 3rd choice,  or however the fuck that method works. and then sort it out.  I know my list is incomplete so we could first make a  complete voting list where everyone puts in 3 or less choices for a group read.  This list should all have the same subject line,  in Pynchonian spirit call it : V-list
