This pub quiz handout round is split into 3 sections, all themed around a 2003 survey, called the Big Read, to find the UK's 200 best-loved novels.

The first section features photos of 5 authors who each had at least 3 novels in this list. The aim for teams is to identify them. The second section features the opening lines from 5 novels in the list and the aim is to name these novels. The final section features the names of 5 authors and, for each of these, the aim is to name the only novel they had in the list.

It is recommended that this round is used as a handout round. You can find more information on handout rounds and our recommended use for them in quizzes on our handout rounds page.

Please note that this handout round also appears in Weekly Quiz 525. If you would prefer to buy pub quiz packs complete with a handout round, a variety of other question and answer rounds, plus specially designed answer sheets for teams to write their answers on, then please visit our Complete Quizzes section. If, however, you prefer to use your own format for your quizzes, then this handout round should help towards creating an entertaining and challenging quiz.

If you buy this handout round, we will give you access to pdf files you can download. Two of these will be for the main handout sheet - one as illustrated above, and one in a more plain format. The third sheet will contain the answers. You probably already have everything you need to access and use these rounds in your quiz, but you might want to check our requirements page to make sure.
