Regardless of winner, I had to go and look up what we agreed on last time we had a tie:
I’ll go put that in the OP.
Also 点と線 is leading still. I own both books and will read whichever gets picked so I’ve opted to sit out of voting for this one

点と線 has won - @nikoru as the nominator would you like to lead this round? The book club start date is September 2nd

Fwiw, 眼球堂 is closer to the style that I personally prefer, but I think 点と線 will be generally preferred by the club.

Oh I totally forgot about that! Yes, I’m happy to lead the club. Will set up a home post and schedule suggestion(s) in the next few days.

Hey all, if you also want to read our newest pick 点と線, please hop over and sign up, and especially: please help determine the schedule!
We’re already 6.5 readers but the more the merrier 
(Especially calling out to @MintTea who voted for the book ^^)

Just a note that voting for the next round of the club this time will take place 2 weeks after the club ends (week of Sept 30th), which is to say October 14th because I’ll be out of town the prior week. Our current book is also pretty short so a little bit more of a breather before the next vote doesn’t seem like a bad thing
As a reminder here is the list of current nominations: Mystery Book Club Current Nominations | Japanese list by cat | Natively
We accept up to 20 nominations, nominations must be submitted using the template in the top post and will be added as they are received. If a nomination is added while I’m out (not for awhile yet, but mentioning) @eefara and @omk3 have edit access.

Why are you nominating this book: 十角館の殺人 | L35 was our very first club book, and after watching the TV adaption I want to read another book in this series! Note that afaik, these books are not connected, so those who haven’t read 十各館 can jump into this one no problem.

and 3/4s of the votes are overlapping. so basically anyone can break the tie, but voting for one or by removing an existing vote

I’m torn. On one hand 黒蜥蜴 is a confirmed green book, and I’ve been off pretty off my game lately, but ~The Book~ is like twice the page count, haha.

By a strange coincidence, that makes the second book in a row that has won the polls in this book club, but which I’ve already read in English 
so I won’t be joining, but I hope you all enjoy!
