Monday, Monday

I saw this over on Barbara H's blog and had to try it.




You Are Mystery



You are a natural problem solver. You like figuring out the best way to do something.

You are very intuitive. You are good at picking up on people's moods and predicting the future.



You can't help but being a bit of a detective and a snoop. You always want to know what's going on.

And while you may have the scoop on everyone you know, you're not a gossip. You're a pro at keeping secrets.




I suppose that's in good keeping with the Children's Mystery Reading Challenge.

Do you want to find out which L.M. Montgomery character you are (from the limited choices the quiz has available?!) Well, I did and I'm not at all disappointed with the result:

Which L. M. Montgomery character are you?
Your Result: Sarah Stanley

Enjoying the fine art of storytelling, you enthrall your friends and acquaintances with the power of your imagination and your wonderful appreciation of the world around you.

Marilla Cuthbert
Anne Shirley
Victoria Stuart
Emily Starr

I think a handful of people would agree with these results but those would be the ones who would know best. =D haha!

I also took a quiz to discover my Reading Personality.

I am a 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!

You can find out your reading personality HERE.

And lastly, some quotes:

That is a good book which is opened with
expectation and closed in profit.
~ Amos Bronson Alcott ~

Here's one I've heard a few times and am just beginning to understand:

Reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man,
and writing an exact man.
~ Francis Bacon ~

The failure to read good books both enfeebles the vision
and strengthens our most fatal tendency--
the belief that the here and now is all there is.
~ Allan Bloom ~

I got "Sarah Stanley," too, but I don't know who that is and I don't think it sounds like me.

I got "exacting serial reader" for the book personality quiz.

Love the quotes!

I took the "what kind of book" quiz. It said "You Are Fantasy / Sci Fi. You have an amazing imagination, and in your mind, all things are possible.
You are open minded, and you find the future exciting. You crave novelty and progress.

Compared to most people, you are quirky and even a bit eccentric. You have some wacky ideas.
And while you may be a bit off the wall, there's no denying how insightful and creative you are."

Well that's just wrong. LOL. Your description fits me. Not this one. :)

well, we're kindred spirits on what type of book but they put me down as Victoria Stuart (!?!?). I like that character but their rationale was not at all accurate. I'd have guessed Felicity (sad but true) or Jane.
