Some of these books and authors may be new to you, but after reading Aaron's book descriptions and battle reviews, I hope some of them sparked your interest. Perhaps we introduced you to a few new books and authors. Only one book can win each battle, and only one book can win the bracket, but there were many good books in the competition.
Battle of the Books match-ups are decided based on reading a sample of the book, most upon reading a mere 25 pages or 50 pages. So if a good book starts slow, in this review format, it may face an uphill battle. These matches are inherently subjective. These battles were decided based on which book the reviewer, who was Aaron for this bracket, would rather continue reading.
Stay tuned for Bracket One of the Battle of the 2016 Books. Another sixteen books are lined up for this competition. Aaron will be the reviewer judging this bracket. We'll be announcing the books which will be featured as our next group of contenders soon!
