I vote for 'Life' (because I desperately want this to be a sci-fi, slaves and female author month, plus there was this really smart set of discussion posts about the book at Torque Control lately) but I would totally get the gigantic 'Perdido Street Station' if that won.Jodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11462660276240016464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30395167.post-22244087850103586192011-10-11T18:54:27.596-05:002011-10-11T18:54:27.596-05:00I've been meaning to read China Mieville for a...I've been meaning to read China Mieville for a really long time so my vote goes for that one.

Not that we can't read something long, but I'm not sure everyone knew that and it might make a difference.
