The Man Booker Long List Game: 

Few of us have the time to read all of the 13 books in the Man Booker long list. So we have come up with a little fun game where you dip into some of these books and try to guess the eventual winner
​
HOW TO PLAY:
1. Click on each of the book covers below: takes you to its Amazon page
2 Read the summary
3 Click ‘look inside’ and read the extract (or at least the first two pages if it’s a long extract)
4 Choose the book you would select as the winner and complete the form
5 Click submit: please note that no personal details are sent to us

No prizes -this is just for fun. Thank you.

A note: Unfortunately, only 9 of the 13 books are included. Three of them, Washington Black, The Water Cure and Normal People, do not have a ‘look inside’ option, while another, The Long Take, has no extract in the ‘look inside’. This is a decision by the author and publisher, which I personally find off-putting. It’s like asking you to buy a car without a test drive.
