One of my favorite books, but do you think it's appropriate for this list?
Not sure what exactly should count as appropriate, I had assumed that the votes would sort the good from the bad, but maybe people would be less inclined to downvote a book they liked, which could be a problem with a well-liked book.
Is it enough that these comments could serve as a warning, or do you suggest I delete/edit the post?
Yeah, I was thinking that it could turn into a popularity contest. There's certainly no way I would ever downvote this book.
Instead of deleting it, why don't you make a case for its inclusion? Vladmir's off to a good start.
