The #UWBookMadness Final Four

April 2, 2014

UW–Madison Badgers made a thrilling entrance into the Final Four last Saturday — and we are actually talking about basketball’s March Madness. Now for you book lovers, check out the Book Madness Final Four! (Disclaimer: we’re not trying to say that being a sports fan and an avid reader are mutually exclusive, of course)

And the contenders are …

  • Game of Thrones by George R. R. Martin vs. The Girl with a Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson
  • The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald vs. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J.K. Rowling

Round 5 is expected to be a cutthroat one — can the Mother of Dragons beat the computer genius with a tattoo? Is there more hope for the green light or for the Boy Who Lived?

Current bragging rights for the best brackets go to Elizabeth H., Samantha S., and Alyssa K.! See how your bracket matches up. (You could win a gift card!)

Votes will be taken through Saturday, April 6th, and the Championship Pairing will be announced Sunday morning.
