I don’t understand how we can read “Gwen and Art” now when Amazon says it won’t be released until November!

We'll have to shift it to a later date and read the 2nd place if it wins. I assume the nominator didn't realize. It has 3,000+ ratings, so it would be an easy mistake to make. (They must send out a boatload of ARCs, although I note the paper is out now)
I added a note (rather than restart the poll.) Sorry I missed that.

It has already released! The author had a launch party months ago. I imagine that maybe it hasn’t been printed in the US yet? (The author is from the UK). But the ebook version should be available everywhere…

Oh that’s so strange! And the exact opposite to what I would have expected haha. It says in the author’s ig that the US release is indeed Nov 28th, so I guess the ebook should be available then. Maybe we can make it our book of the month for December ☺️
