Limitless Libraries Author Interview - 2024 Battle of the Books with Deya Muniz

Battle of the Books is a book-based trivia tournament for middle and high school students. The event happens every May. The goals of the program are to promote a love of reading, expose students to titles and authors that they might not encounter otherwise, encourage them to think of their local public library as a resource for entertainment, and to inspire teamwork and good sportsmanship in an atmosphere of friendly competition.
Deya Muniz was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where they grew up watching Pride and Prejudice and reading copious amounts of shojo manga. In 2017, they moved to the United States to pursue a master's degree in sequential art, where they met and fell in love with a wonderful girl who makes delicious grilled cheese sandwiches.
