You might want to use a bounty system for future markets like this - everyone has to put down M25 they won't get back for each option they add, so everyone will probably lose money overall. A prediction market would make more sense if it took tons of effort to evaluate each option and you wanted to prioritize evaluating the best ones

@CDBiddulph Wait, for some reason I thought your "recommendation list" was a list of books you wanted to read but hadn't necessarily read yet. Ignore the last sentence of that comment

If you don't end up reading something, does that option resolve N/A?

@TheBayesian I intend to extend the close date as long as I am alive and reading things, so this should not happen. Should I become unalive or incapable of reading, I suppose everything would resolve N/A.

I see you have Children of Time in your to-read list - I'm reading it right now and it's great

To Sleep in a Sea of Stars: hard sci-fi with good fantastical premise

Project Hail Mary: firm sci-fi, good thinking book

House of Leaves: a parody of academia in fiction form, postmodern but not too pretentious, influenced an enormous amount of media you enjoyed.

I am unlikely to read nonfiction books or at least put them down on the list, but you could have inferred that from the contents of the list.

I have actually read HPMOR. I don't think I thought of it when I was writing the recommendations list for some reason, but it might be good enough to qualify, though I would probably want to skim-reread it before doing so.
