That’s right, I’m doing it again! Last year’s book fight tournament motivated me to read books I probably wouldn’t have otherwise.
I did make a few changes for this year:
- All the books are from my TBR (no recommendations this time).
- I’ve grouped them by genre, as best as possible, to make the match ups a bit more fair. So for example, an epic fantasy won’t be going up against a non-fiction.
- I’ve split the tournament into two rounds. This is mainly for visual reasons. Also, if you want to play along at home, you can choose to do only one round of 16 books instead of going the full monty of 32.
Without further ado, here are this year’s match ups:
