EliNeedsMoreShelves Oh, geez, such good choices. I vote Home Fire, but only because it's a standalone, and if you read The Passage first you'll have to commit to the whole trilogy! 5y

CSeydel @EliNeedsMoreShelves not to worry, I own the whole trilogy thanks to a generous gift from @Avanders 😊 5y

Results tallied for the votes to #makemereadit
This was a very close race!
Norse Mythology is the winner by one vote and I‘ll be starting that next once I finish my current reads.
The Rules of Magic will be fourth.
Other positions are currently ties so I‘ll post tie-breakers shortly.
