REVIEW

I like the green cover, it reminds me of a pub beer mat. It looks very formal so great if you’re the quiz master!

The book starts out explaining its format ie where answers are, and that there are easier, medium and harder questions and how they are separated/set out in the book. The book also explains how to set up and run a successful quiz yourself!

There really is a great selection of questions, some set out into themed quizzes, others set out more randomly, referred to as 'pot luck's quizzes in the book.
Theres is a good large selection of questions for all abilities and tastes and interests.
Having said that I would say the book is aimed more at adults even though the genre says Teens & YA. I thinks its suitable from teens upwards.
It would be the ideal handbook for a pub quiz host or a family quizzer at home host!
I do think it will be even better as a physical book, to enable you to switch up/mix up quizzes if you want to. A physical copy would make finding the answers easier too. However, it does still work really well as an ebook too.

I’d definitely recommend this quiz book and am looking forward to more hours of fun with it myself! It's certainly a book you can use over and over again. It is really packed with quizzes.
