    50: End of 2021 Bracket

    In this episode, the hosts share the winners of their reading bracket. They do this by choosing a favorite book from each month of 2021 and pit each month against each other. The books knock each other out one by one, until there is a clear winner. August and Kendra have both fiction and nonfiction brackets. And, believe it or not, some of their picks are different from the top 5 of 2021 due to the nature of the bracket knockouts. This episode is completely spoiler-free.
