Tough choice! In the end I went for All That Jazz because I've been wanting to read Wodehouse for ages, and I really enjoyed The Great Gatsby. I've read both Dystopians before but I wouldn't mind re-reading them. And I would probably go along with King of the Swingers if that got chosen as well!

The poll is now closed - looks like Dystopian Futures won by a nose this time!
