## Frequently Asked Questions

### How does the book bracket work?

Sixteen novels enter the bracket. Spin the wheel to draw each head-to-head matchup, vote on the better book with your group or book club, and advance the winner until one novel is crowned champion.

### Can I run this with my book club?

Yes, it works well as a month-long book club event. Run one matchup a week and let members vote before advancing the winner.

### Can I use a different genre or reading list?

Yes, edit the list to run an all-fantasy bracket, a single-author bracket, or your own club's past reads.

### Is this the same as the book spinner?

No. The book spinner picks a random book for you to read next. This bracket runs a head-to-head vote to decide the best book among a group.

### What usually wins book brackets?

1984 and To Kill a Mockingbird are perennial heavyweights, but Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings regularly pull off deep runs. Every group crowns a different champion.
