March Gradness Day 2: Round of 64 (Part 2)

Cast your vote for the best campus novel of all time

Welcome to March Gradness day two! There were some notable upsets in Round One, part one (Prep, The Rules of Attraction, and The Secret Place all knocked out!), and we’re sure there will be more to come. Our Instagram voters turned out in droves and overruled some of the results on the website (sorry to The Magicians and The Secret Place), so make sure to get those votes in. Check out the updated bracket below.
