WHAT BOOK ARE YOU?


You're Ulysses!
by James Joyce

Most people are convinced that you don't make any sense, but compared to what else you could say, what you're saying now makes tons of sense. What people do understand about you is your vulgarity, which has convinced people that you are at once brilliant and repugnant. Meanwhile you are content to wander around aimlessly, taking in the sights and sounds of the city. What you see is vast, almost limitless, and brings you additional fame. When no one is looking, you dream of being a Greek folk hero.

You're The Dictionary!
by Merriam-Webster
You're one of those know-it-all types, with an amazing amount of knowledge at your command. People really enjoy spending time with you in very short spurts, but hanging out with you for a long time tends to bore them. When folks really need an authority to refer to, however, you're the one they seek. You're an exceptional speller and very well organized.


This is ME LOL. Thanks for the test. I want my friends to take it too!

I'm One Hundred Years Of Solitude (or maybe that's just what I need...)

Wow, so apparently I'm Lolita--sex-obsessed, vulgar, and depraved. Pretty interesting results for a goody-goody virgin. I must have an evil twin.

I'm To Kill a Mockingbird, by Harper Lee: "Perceived as a revolutionary and groundbreaking person, you have changed the minds of many people. While questioning the authority around you, you've also taken a significant amount of flack. But you've had the admirable guts to persevere. There's a weird guy in the neighborhood using dubious means to protect you, but you're pretty sure it's worth it in the end..."

Me? I'm:

Prufrock and Other Observations!
by T.S. Eliot
Though you are very short and often overshadowed, your voice is poetic and lyrical. Dark and brooding, you see the world as a hopeless effort of people trying to impress other people. Though you make reference to almost everything, you've really heard enough about Michelangelo. You measure out your life with coffee spoons.

Never heard of it, but how did they know I'm short?

Hey, I'm not liking my results, lol. This would be a portion:
You're The Poisonwood Bible!
by Barbara Kingsolver
Deeply rooted in a religious background, you have since become both isolated and schizophrenic.

I'm "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn."
With an affinity for floating down the river, you see things in black and white. The world is strange and new to you and the more you learn about it, the less it makes sense. You probably speak with an accent and others have a hard time understanding you and an even harder time taking you seriously. Nevertheless, your adventurous spirit is admirable. You really like straw hats.

Hi. My name is Jeri. I love to read, as well! I took the quiz and I am: The Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis. I was surprised. Please come to my journal sometime.
