Create Your Own Quiz


The only strange thing about this quiz was Question #4:

Which set of books have you read ALL of?

1. Bridges of Madison Country, The Da Vinci Code, The Name of the Rose, and at least two Harry Potter books
2. Moby Dick, Huckleberry Finn, Wuthering Heights, Great Expectations, The Great Gatsby
3. War and Peace, Silas Marner, Madame Bovary, The Age of Innocence, To the Lighthouse
4. Carrie, The Stand, and a couple other books in high school that I don't remember.

--Which seems to me to discriminate against "genre" readers, as the fourth choice to answer the question has a kind of "dumb horror reader" patina about it.

Also, I'm sorry to say, some of the aforementioned classics I simply cannot plow through. For instance, "Huckleberry Finn's" dialect drives me nuts, and I must be the only person on this planet who hasn't read a single page of Harry Potter.

Still, I haven't read "Bridges" or "Da Vinci" either, so something must be looking up.
