This is chock full of trivia。 Almost a little too full， but hopefully I retained enough knowledge to stomp the other teams at trivia night。 There is literally something about EVERYTHING。I received an ARC， but my opinions are all mine。

I love going to quiz nights and really enjoyed how this book is set up with multiple quiz sets， each with a few rounds of questions covering a wide range of topics， just a few of which are: 1999， Netflix Shows， nineties sitcoms， bartending， the Renaissance， cartoons， famous deaths， chemistry， fictional geography， random stuff you might know， and the （always dreaded， at least for me） sports。I especially love some of the extra clever， specialty rounds like Before and After and Movie Math where you I love going to quiz nights and really enjoyed how this book is set up with multiple quiz sets， each with a few rounds of questions covering a wide range of topics， just a few of which are: 1999， Netflix Shows， nineties sitcoms， bartending， the Renaissance， cartoons， famous deaths， chemistry， fictional geography， random stuff you might know， and the （always dreaded， at least for me） sports。I especially love some of the extra clever， specialty rounds like Before and After and Movie Math where you have to come up with two answers and combine them to get the correct answer， and also a Balderdash-style round called Bad Movie Descriptions。 Highly recommended for anyone looking for fun trivia questions -- definitely planning to use sections of it for our next block party's trivia contest。* thanks to Workman Publishing for the NetGalley copy for review。 This comes out February 22， 2022。 。。。more

Wonderful resource for hosting a trivia night！ Questions were various and plentiful covering a wide range of subjects and levels。 Definitely worth having in a pub for game night。This book was read through an ARC with Netgalley and is my personal opinion。

My mom and I love watching trivia shows on TV。 Jeopardy， The Chase， Masterminds， Common Knowledge。 Whatever we can， we love。 When I saw this book up， buy Auston Rogers no less， I knew I had to try to get it to review。 It is a great book for what it is， a solid 4。 It is not， however， just a general book of interesting trivia， it is your own personal Pub Trivia night in your hands。Now， for my own personal use， as I’m not at all extroverted enough to go out to an actual pub trivia night， I would sa My mom and I love watching trivia shows on TV。 Jeopardy， The Chase， Masterminds， Common Knowledge。 Whatever we can， we love。 When I saw this book up， buy Auston Rogers no less， I knew I had to try to get it to review。 It is a great book for what it is， a solid 4。 It is not， however， just a general book of interesting trivia， it is your own personal Pub Trivia night in your hands。Now， for my own personal use， as I’m not at all extroverted enough to go out to an actual pub trivia night， I would say it’s more like a 3， just because unless I suddenly post-COVID decide I want to go out and hang out with people or maybe create an online pub trivia thing， wouldn’t actually be using them as they are designed in their lists。 I have been using them to test myself and my mom on my knowledge and been learning new things from it。 I do like how they are marked on difficulty level， mostly because it let’s me know how much shame I should feel for not knowing a level 1， and how proud I should feel that I easily knew something that Austin Rogers thinks is level 5。For those who are looking for a good book of Pub Trivia lists for their own Pub Trivia Nights， I think it’s also a good jumping off point to give some ideas on their own ideas for personal creations of themes and questions。 Thank you to NetGalley and Workman Publishing Company for the ARC of this book。 。。。more

I love trivia and who better to write the ultimate trivia book than Austin Rogers？ This book has a wide array of trivia at all different skill levels and even if you don’t do trivia nights， it’s a fun book to read alone and try to test your knowledge。

Well I guess I learnt something here – that a book of "pub trivia" in the American language is a quiz book。 But it's still not a quiz book as us Brits know it。 After a brief introduction， declaring the author to have been on a few TV shows and got utterly frustrated at the more insular kind of NYC bar quiz， we get straight to the questions – set in pages of ten， with the answers upside down at the bottom。 All pages also try and find room for a factoid – the actual trivia I thought I was getting。 Well I guess I learnt something here – that a book of "pub trivia" in the American language is a quiz book。 But it's still not a quiz book as us Brits know it。 After a brief introduction， declaring the author to have been on a few TV shows and got utterly frustrated at the more insular kind of NYC bar quiz， we get straight to the questions – set in pages of ten， with the answers upside down at the bottom。 All pages also try and find room for a factoid – the actual trivia I thought I was getting。 There's also a closing how-to guide， suggesting a variety of subjects etc， which should all be fairly bloody self-explanatory。So it's the core of the book that is possibly of most interest。 And it's fairest to say this doesn't travel – a list of the world's most numerous fast food chain outlets features at least one I don't think exists in Britain。 Neither do we care for Canadian hockey magazine initials。 It was interesting to see an Answersmash kind of two-part answer format so prevalent， likewise a Mouse of Games equivalent （oh， sorry， British TV quizzing cultural references not fully your thing？！ Yup， that's how it feels）。 But the biggest different between this and practically every quiz book I've used before now， and every quiz show I've ever watched， and more importantly every pub quiz I've ever won， is that at least 90% of this is in the form of statement。 No， the 'questions' ignore the questioning aspect of the question （and the grammar of the same） and just exist as a phrase with an aspect to it left out， which is the intended answer。I think Jeopardy！ does similar， but it's decades since I saw any episode of that， as it never succeeded east of Maine。 But it's a huge cultural gulf that only adds to the USA-only-isms of what came before and meant this was not terribly useful to me。 It's a well-meaning book， kind of talking down to people and yet flooding them with quiz questions that do have a long shelf-life。 I can see many getting a good use out of it， but by virtue of geography I couldn't call myself one of them。 And what is the beef with being interrogative？ 。。。more
