New poll up asking for more reader choices for future reviews

In the next few weeks, I'll finish reviewing the works (minus, alas, the squirrel erotica) on the previous poll inquiring about most-desired reviews that received at least 10 votes.  It's now time for a new poll and I thought that I would continue the theme of the last one, adding new(ish) titles to the list.  I also plan on continuing to review more of Gabriel García Márquez's longer fiction in the coming weeks, so there is that also to complete before I jumpstart the World War I centennial review series in late May/early June with a couple of histories before delving into various national literatures concerning that infamous war.  Hopefully, there will continue to be a steady stream of posts even despite the exhaustion I've been feeling every night this week.

For those who missed the last poll's results, here they are, with bolded titles representing stories already reviewed here and italics for that to come:

Helen Oyeyemi, Boy, Snow, Bird
  13 (30%)
 
Erich Maria Remarque, All Quiet on the Western Front
  12 (27%)
 
Dominique Rolin, Letter to Lise

Why not a book of squirrel erotica? (if only...)
  14 (32%)
