What is Battle of the Books After Hours?
Battle of the Books After Hours is an adults-only reading competition. Teams of 3-5 will read 6 preselected books (see booklist below) and then join in a trivia competition at Flood Zone Brewery (October 1) or 1623 Brewing Co. (October 8 & 22). Check out books from the booklist below or purchase from A Likely Story Bookstore. The competition will have two rounds of 20 questions in multiple formats, fill-in-the-blank, true or false, or multiple choice. Doors open at 5:30 pm to practice and purchase food and beverages. Teams will be sent full competition rules in advance.
