With the release of that terrible top 100 chart by the fake Polling anon that is loaded with Japanese cuck lit, its time to get a new chart created for the 1st half of 2017. The voting form is below.

Like with any voting thread on here, troll responses, Reddit-tier votes and people artificially inflating votes for some books will be deleted.

If you have a favourite author its fine to vote them multiple times.

If there are any flaws with this voting system or you would like to see changes to it - e.g. an option for a negative vote or two, I can do that.
