Brackets

While I’m filling in my basketball brackets and arguing with my sons about who will take it all, I thought I should join the ranks of those predicting winners from the SLJ Battle of the Books. Here are my predictions for

Round One:

• Amelia Lost over Anya’s Ghost
• Between Shades of Gray over Bootleg
• The Cheshire Cheese Cat over Chime
• Daughter of Smoke and Bone over Dead End
• Drawing from Memory over The Grand Plan to Fix Everything
• Inside Out and Back Again over Heart and Soul
• A Monster Calls over Life: An Exploded Diagram
• Okay for Now over Wonderstruck

Round Two:

• Between Shades of Gray over Amelia Lost
• Daughter of Smoke and Bone over The Cheshire Cat
• Inside Out and Back Again over Drawing from Memory
• A Monster Calls over Okay for Now

Round Three:

And the Winner:

• Between Shades of Gray will overtake A Monster Calls

Okay, those are my picks. Where are yours?
