Booktastic board game
We got a donation recently, a board game called Booktastic! Upon opening the game board, you see a village green in the center, with shops around the edge. Much to my surprise, there's a shop called Cynthia's Fine Used Books!
The object of the game is to "amass the most valuable collection of books and cash." You select a moving pawn, get $220 from the banker, roll the die and move. You want to get near a bookstore (there are others besides Cynthia's) and then enact a transaction. There are questions of course--with more money going to correct answers in either the Avid Reader or the Collector categories.
Your question for today, chosen at random:
Avid Reader
Who wrote Death of A Scriptwriter?
A) M. C. Beaton, B) Nevada Barr or C) Sandra Brown?
Collector
A book description states "308 pp." What does this mean?
These seem too easy, so maybe librarians are way beyond Avid Readers or Collectors...
Care to answer? I'll have some suitable, and small, prize to send for both categories. If there are numerous correct answers, I'll draw at random. Meanwhile, I'll look for some more challenging questions. No fair using the catalog!!!

Too funny! Sounds like a way to do bibliographic instruction...
