The Tournament of Books summer bracket has been announced for #CampToB25 : https://www.tournamentofbooks.com/welcome-to-the-summer-bracket

As expected, I've read most of these, so hopefully I remember them well enough to enjoy the match-ups.

Larkken I never fail to be impressed by how flawlessly they manage to pair each book I‘ve read with one I have not read. 😂 2w
Ruthiella That‘s a good collection of titles. I‘ve read three and will probably get in a couple more soonish. 2w
Bookwormjillk I‘ve only read one and am not sure I have the energy to add another list to my TBR 😂 2w

ImperfectCJ @Larkken They're pretty skilled at that, aren't they? There are actually more of those than I realized in this bracket because there are a couple I thought I'd read just because I've been seeing the list for so long 2w
ImperfectCJ @Bookwormjillk Tournament of Books has become the primary list I focus on each year, so that ends up being how I feel about many other lists (Booker, Women's Prize, National Book Award). I don't have fomo in many areas of life, but I definitely have it in reading, as evidenced by my TBR 2w
Bookwormjillk @ImperfectCJ I love TOB but somehow they picked all the ones I didn‘t get to. And I‘m already trying to guess and read ahead for next year. 2w
ImperfectCJ @Bookwormjillk Ooh...you're more skilled than I am, I suspect. I have never been able to guess what's going to be on next year's list. New books are rarely even on my radar until they show up on some list or another. 2w
Larkken @Bookwormjillk wow! I‘m with @ImperfectCJ I‘m lucky if I‘ve read one or two books on the longlist when it comes out, but I do enjoy picking random books off it even after the shortlist! I‘ve found some wonderful new authors to obsess over by doing that 2w
Bookwormjillk @Larkken @ImperfectCJ I mostly just pick the weirdest books from the #CampLitsy list and cross my fingers 2w

I know myself, with #CampLitsy25 on its way and probably #CampToB25 (why hasn‘t it been announced yet?!) and the upcoming #Booker longlist I know I‘ll keep changing my reading plans. So to make it doable I chose the shortest books on my TBR shelves for #14Books14Weeks. Looking forward to reading all of these!

Bookwormjillk I loved Mina‘s Matchbox. So different from her others. 2mo
