2012 Lit Quiz - how much do you know?

Hi everyone,

Apologies for my absence the past few weeks. It has been manic here at West HQ - Santa's workshop has nothing on it. In any case, I've decided to give your brains one last, valedictory workout before the Christmas shutdown. Let's see how much you remember about the literary year that's been.

Send your answers to my helpful elf, andrea.jutson@aucklandcouncil.govt.nz. She will collate and mark them, and the winner gets...

Well, the winner will get feted as the literary genius of 2012, along with the chance to rave about their favourite books in my next blog post. I would have given away a box of chocolates, except they appear to have gone missing. It's most upsetting. Answers will be announced on January 8, 2013.

Sharp minds? Sharp pencils? OK go.

Oh, and cheating is totally legal.
