Did we read Unwind? Because if we haven't, I'm nominating it. And if no one else is going to nominate any books, looks like it'll be no poll again, just the books that have been nominated, like last time.
Actually, I may take out my nomination for Unwind and put up The Hunger Games and Battle Royale. Basically, Battle Royale is a more full on version of the concept in The Hunger Games, BUT, it came first, and I reckon The Hunger Games author must've read it, because it's too similar. Anyway, I LOVED Battle Royale, it's one of my favourite books. It's such an intense read, but made me so sad, especially when some of my favourites died. However, I couldn't put it down.

Okay, I suppose it would fit in with the Dystopian theme of the other two books. Plus, I have it on my shelf, just haven't gotten around to reading it.

Jason put this book on the other thread to do with the coming reads, so I'll transfer it to here. A Rocky Existence Any other suggestions guys, because we might actually have enough for a poll now.
