Quiz: The ultimate book trivia quiz

With another year of reading wrapped, it’s always nice to look back on the year that was – but we’ve gone just a step further back. For this ultimate book trivia quiz, we reached back beyond 2025, into the past decade, and even into the past century or two to come up with questions to test your novel knowledge, your book braininess and your literary learnedness.

From Morrison to Mackesy, 19th-century novels to classics of the past decade – and, yes, a few questions pertaining to 2025 – we’re spanning years and genres to give every kind of reader a fair shake at bragging rights.

Of course, we know reading isn’t a competitive sport, but we bet you’ll still have fun seeing how you measure up against your friends and family. Send this to your bestie, your sibling, mum or dad and see if they can beat your score or play along together at your next social gathering.
