#1: I got: Serial Reader!

You may read a lot or a little, but either way you’re a publisher’s dream, because once you discover a favorite writer you stick with him/her through thick and thin and eagerly await the next in the series; but even you need to discover some new blood from time to time!

#2: The Guns of August. Apparently I’m interested in war, lol. (News to me!)

#3: Dedicated Reader :)

This SO made me laugh! I’m an eclectic reader as well as a dedicated reader (with the same tendencies as you). Those sum me up pretty well. But the book? Hilarious! I’m Watership Down, which is to say: Though many think of you as a bit young, even childish, you’re actually incredibly deep and complex. You show people the need to rethink their assumptions, and confront them on everything from how they think to where they build their houses. You might be one of the greatest people of all time. You’d be recognized as such if you weren’t always talking about talking rabbits.

I only took the last one and got dedicated reader though it was close with obsessive-compulsive bookworm (which I actually agree with more) – I just want to devour any and every book I can get my hands on.

Oh! And the meaning of the Catcher in the Rye diagnosis:

You are surrounded by phonies, and boy are you sick of them! In an ongoing struggle to search for a land without phonies, you end up running away from everything, from school to consequences. In this process, you reveal that many people in your life have suffered torments and all you really want to do is catch them as they fall. Perhaps using a baseball mitt. Your biggest fans are infamous psychotics.

Fabulous!

I am a sucker for quizzes so here are my results:
3. Dedicated reader!
2. Oh boy. I’m The Catcher in the Rye.
1. The link for this was the same as number 2.

I went back and did the “what book am I” one and I couldn’t disagree more but it’s definitely a book I do *want* to read! This book makes me and my life sound so sad, which it’s not but it was still a fun little quiz. (Confession the 1st time I took it suggested Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy! That was rather funny!)

One Hundred Years of Solitude!
by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Lonely and struggling, you’ve been around for a very long time. Conflict has filled most of your life and torn apart nearly everyone you know. Yet there is something majestic and even epic about your presence in the world. You love life all the more for having seen its decimation. After all, it takes a village.

Ooo! Fun!

I did the “What kind of reader are you?” quiz and my results are: Literate Good Citizen. I thought I was nerdy but I guess not :)

You read to inform or entertain yourself, but you’re not nerdy about it. You’ve read most major classics (in school) and you have a favorite genre or two.

My results:

1)I can’t take this one so I’m just going to skip it and say I’m and All-Rounder as well.

2)I, Robot – I enjoyed this book, but I wouldn’t say the description fits me all that well (cold and calculating, etc). It also gave me Siddhartha, which seemed like an odd fit (don’t know what you believe in, lonely).

3)Literate Good citizen – according to this I’m not nerdy about reading? Wow, that’s a first.
