This trivia book is pure fun from start to finish! Every page is packed with wild, true facts that sound totally made up—but they’re all real. The questions are clever, the explanations are witty, and it’s impossible not to laugh or say, “Wait, that’s true?!” at least a dozen times. It’s perfect for game nights, parties, or just flipping through when you need a good laugh. Finally, a trivia book that’s actually entertaining and fresh. Highly recommend for anyone who loves weird facts and great conversation starters!

Weird But True Trivia for Adults is the rare trivia book that actually feels alive—full of curiosity, humor, and that sly sense of wonder that keeps you turning pages just to see what absurdity could possibly be true next. Alec Sanders doesn’t recycle old pub-night questions; he curates stories so bizarre they sound like urban legends until you realize they’re completely factual. Each answer comes with a clever explanation that gives context, humor, and just enough backstory to make you feel smarter and more entertained at once.

[Tochi Orji · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a nice collage of some real quirky facts. Though, I prefer when the options to trivia questions are one or two word options rather than whole sentences which is prevalent in this book.
I loved that I could just clip to reveal the answers, rather than having to flip through.

Weird But True Trivia For Adults: A Fun Quiz Book Full of Real Facts That Sound Totally Made Up. It was a very good and interesting read. It was a well-written page turner. I was surprised by most of the facts in the book. Sophia Loren was one of the most interesting, especially Lady Gaga.
