What Book Are You?

[catbert836]

I'm "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.

A book I've neither read nor have any desire to read, lol.

[SofaKingLiberal]

1. You're The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy!

Considered by many to be one of the funniest people around, you are quite an entertainer. You've also traveled to the far reaches of what you deem possible, often confused and unsure of yourself. Life continues to jostle you around like a marble, but it's shown you so much of the world that you don't care. Wacky adventures continue to lie ahead. Your favorite number is 42.

[RedCloud]

74. Yet another...

42? My favorite number is 43! How wrong can they be? The rest does seem to fit me.

[azmouse]

88. Me too!

I'm glad that was what came up for me! It's one of my fav books!

[Guy Fawkes]

89. Me, too! And it's my favorite book...

Douglas Adams was amazing. I loved the Hitchhikers Guide series.

[deadparrot]

2. One of my favorites: The Poisonwood Bible.

You're The Poisonwood Bible!
by Barbara Kingsolver
Deeply rooted in a religious background, you have since become both isolated and schizophrenic. You were naively sure that your actions would help people, but of course they were resistant to your message and ultimately disaster ensued. Since you can see so many sides of the same issue, you are both wise beyond your years and tied to worthless perspectives. If you were a type of waffle, it would be Belgian.

[JohnKleeb]

3. I got a book I never heard of

You're Compassion Fatigue!
by Susan Moeller
You used to care, but now it's just getting too difficult. You cared about the plight of people in lands near and far, but now the media has bombarded you with images of suffering to the point that you just don't have the energy to go on. You've become cold and heartless, as though you'd lived in New York City for a year or so. But you stand as a serious example to all others that they should turn off their TV sets and start caring again.

I feel tempted to read James Joyce but I think that would be going way over my head.

[catbert836]

15. Same here...

It would be great to say "Oh, I read Ulysses/Finnegan's Wake" to sound impressive if the topic ever came up. However, I have serious doubts as to whether I could understand or finish either of them. Me and stream of conciousness parted ways after my prolonged reading of "Absolom! Absolom!"

[JohnKleeb]

26. I was assigned to read Franz Kafka's the Metamphorisis Senior Year

and Albert Camous' The Stranger and I didn't get either of them yet somehow I got high grades on my essays for them. That's a mystery to me.

[catbert836]

27. I read both

this summer, on my own, lol. I guess I'll be well prepared headed into Junior-Senior IB Humanities next year, though.

[JohnKleeb]

33. Those are two I would never read on my own

I did read Remarque's All Quiet on the Western Front though my junior year for fun because WWI was interesting me very much at that time.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

4. Mists of Avalon, apparently.

You're The Mists of Avalon!
by Marion Zimmer Bradley
You're obsessed with Camelot in all its forms, from Arthurian legend to the Kennedy administration. Your favorite movie from childhood was "The Sword in the Stone". But more than tales of wizardry and Cuban missiles, you've focused on women. You know that they truly hold all the power. You always wished you could meet Jackie Kennedy.

I do so love medieval history. That's cool!

[catbert836]

8. So you got a GOOD result.

Of course, I get stuck with "Ulysess", the most boring (yet influential) book in the last century.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

11. I've never read TMOA. Or ULYSSES, for that matter.

:P

[catbert836]

17. I read MOA

Yikes, it was probably 4 years ago. That makes me feel old. If you had asked me back then, I probably would have recommended it, though.

[jobycom]

84. I named my daughter after that book

Yeah, "Misty Avalon" is an odd name... Actually, I named her after a main character.

And I studied medieval history for many years! It is cool.

[Iniquitous Bunny]

5. Lolita!

Considered by most to be depraved and immoral, you are obsessed with
sex. What really tantalizes you is that which deviates from societal standards in every
way, though you admit that this probably isn't the best and you're not sure what causes
this desire. Nonetheless, you've done some pretty nefarious things in your life, and
probably gotten caught for them. The names have been changed, but the problems are real.
Please stay away from children.


Pedophilia is way bad (duh!), but otherwise I say "let the freak flag shine".

[catbert836]

10. Ouch!

Now I feel GREAT that my test result implied that I was a desperate loser... at least I'm not a paedophile ;-)

[WritingIsMyReligion]

13. That's a slam.

:rofl::rofl:

[Iniquitous Bunny]

60. Nabokov's classic work a slam?

I don't take it that way. If one goes beyond the obvious, there's other meanings behind it.

[Mutley]

6. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

by C.S. Lewis
You were just looking for some decent clothes when everything changed quite dramatically. For the better or for the worse, it is still hard to tell. Now it seems like winter will never end and you feel cursed. Soon there will be an epic struggle between two forces in your life and you are very concerned about a betrayal that could turn the balance. If this makes it sound like you're re-enacting Christian theological events, that may or may not be coincidence. When in doubt, put your trust in zoo animals.

One of my favorite books when I was a kid. :hi:

[Floogeldy]

7. tHE sATANIC bIBLE

[Reverend_Smitty]

9. I'm A People's History of the United States

After years of listening to other peoples' lies, you decided you've
had enough. Now you're out to tell it like it is, with all the gory details and nothing
left out. Instead of respecting leaders, you want to know what the common people have to
offer. But this revolution still has a long way to go, and you're not against making a
little profit while you wait. Honesty is your best policy.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

14. That's a cool one!

:D

[Reverend_Smitty]

18. One of my favorite books of all time too!

[txwhitedove]

12. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland...... oh my!

<>

After stumbling down the wrong turn in life, you've had your mind
opened to a number of strange and curious things. As life grows curiouser and curiouser,
you have to ask yourself what's real and what's the picture of illusion. Little is coming
to your aid in discerning fantasy from fact, but the line between them is so blurry that
it's starting not to matter. Be careful around rabbit holes and those who smile to much,
and just avoid hat shops altogether.

[Joe Fields]

16. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

[CrownPrinceBandar]

19. Siddhartha.........

"You simply don't know what to believe, but you're willing to try
anything once. Western values, Eastern values, hedonism and minimalism, you've spent
some time in every camp. But you still don't have any idea what camp you belong in.
This makes you an individualist of the highest order, but also really lonely. It's
time to chill out under a tree. And realize that at least you believe in
ferries."

Hmmm?.........

[khashka]

20. Just read the last chapter

Molly Bloom: "Yes, I said yes, I mean yes!"

The most erotic thing ever written.....


Me... I'm The Lazarus Heart. Oh well....


Khash.

[bicentennial_baby]

21. I'm my favorute book! The Great Gatsby!

:bounce:




You're The Great Gatsby!
by F. Scott Fitzgerald
Having grown up in immense wealth and privilege, the world is truly at your doorstep. Instead of reveling in this life of luxury, however, you spend most of your time mooning over a failed romance. The object of your affection is all but worthless--a frivolous liar--but it matters not to you. You can paint any image of the past you want and make it seem real. If you were a color of fishing boat light, you would be green.

[everythingsxen]

22. 1984

You're 1984!

by George Orwell
You have this uncanny feeling that you're always being watched. Thus
life has become a bit of a show as you try to portray yourself as much more reputable
than you actually are. All around you, people seem to accept an unending stream of lies
and propaganda without flinching. Your only hope may be a star-crossed love affair, but
pain seems stonger than love. If you have any older brothers, be very wary of
them.


Take the Book Quiz
at the Blue Pyramid.

[Glorfindel]

23. I'm "The Mists of Avalon" actually I book I loved

What a clever quiz! I would have predicted "A Tale of Two Cities," but I certainly don't object to the placement given.

[Aristus]

24. I'm Don Quixote.

My armor is rusty and my mind is muddled. But I'm a romantic, chivalric fool to the end.

[otherlander]

25. Damn....I am...

Siddhartha!
by Hermann Hesse
You simply don't know what to believe, but you're willing to try anything once. Western values, Eastern values, hedonism and minimalism, you've spent some time in every camp. But you still don't have any idea what camp you belong in. This makes you an individualist of the highest order, but also really lonely. It's time to chill out under a tree. And realize that at least you believe in ferries.
_______________________________

The other English class had to read that book, and everybody said it was boring. I've never read it...maybe I should? Because that actually describes me pretty well...

[WritingIsMyReligion]

28. Also: Try the country quiz on the same website.

You're Libya!

It seems that these days, you just say things to get attention. Shock value is the really important thing for you now. You used to have a cause, and this made you seem like a threat to the established order, but now you just want to say wacky stuff once in a while. Air travel doesn't really mesh with your lifestyle, and you'd probably scare the security guards somehow anyway.

*****

:rofl:

[catbert836]

31. We're neighbors!

I'm Egypt!

Curator of ancient mystical secrets, your life on the surface is fairly typical these days. Though you are in denial about more things than most people. Nevertheless, you're trying to convince people that you're safe despite your more volatile and unstable times that seem to be behind you. You like cats a whole lot. You'd probably really appreciate The Blue Pyramid.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

32. I just did the University quiz, too.

You're Davidson College!
You love your mama, Jesus, and America too. But rather than finding yourself in free-fall, you've been on the rise lately, as people have flocked to see you. Of all the wars that have been fought, you felt the Revolutionary War was most justified. Cherish is a word you use to describe all the feelings you have deep inside. If you were a book, it would be Charlotte's Web.

***

Pity I'm not Christian, eh?

:D

[catbert836]

36. I'm Sarah Lawrence College!

With a passion for being unconventional, you attempt to avoid the traditional wherever possible. In your extensive efforts to be different, you've even ditched most of your own personal traditions just to stay unpredictably in flux. Some of this experimenting has made people feel more welcome to try out almost anything in your presence, though it comes with the drawback of almost constant weirdness. Though you're actually far from it, you could be called the Bronx Zoo.

[Fox Mulder]

63. You're the University of British Columbia!

Truly striking in your natural beauty, you are a center of attraction. You never seem to tire of people staring at you and even encourage them to go on long walks near you. You do manage a more serious side as well, and have an interest in studying whales as well as merely observing them. You recently developed a fascination with the obscure sequel "2010: The Year We Make Contact".

[WritingIsMyReligion]

34. And the state quiz.

You're Bikini Atoll!
You once believed that your biggest concern would be a shark attack. Now you know just how much more destructive humans can be than any other creature. While you don't like mushrooms, you've had to eat so many of them that it's become almost a way of life. Exiled from your home and forced to wait for someone to clean it up, you've become bitter but remain powerless. Most people like to gawk at those who share your name.

*****

Now THAT is creepy. :scared:

[catbert836]

37. I'm Puerto Rico!

While you refuse to pay taxes, you sometimes wonder if the consequences of this are taking away all of your potential power and influence. But every time you think about offering to pay taxes, you realize how little cash you have on hand to begin with. Most of the folks around you look down on you and your state of limbo, but you're trying to play both sides of the coin to your full advantage. Out of the clear blue sky, you just became a huge fan of the Montreal Expos.

[Fox Mulder]

64. You're the Panama Canal!

While others are content to work long and hard hours, you're all about taking the shortcut. While this has benefited you for the most part, it has required starting several conflicts so that you could get your way. Your old profession doesn't seem terribly lofty to anyone, and sometimes you've even needed to dig ditches to get by, but you figure the results are worth it. Now, most of the time you're just cruising.

[txwhitedove]

40. OMG, I'm Vietnam!

"

You're Vietnam!
After years of muddling through on your own, you've finally repaired yourself
to a point of respectability.  You would have been much better off had
people you didn't like not kept insisting on spending so much time with you.
But those times are fading quickly and these days you're pretty sure you won't get burned.


:shrug:

[everythingsxen]

35. I'm China

You're China!

Big and powerful, you have a long history behind you with more good
and bad than you care to remember, or are really capable of remembering.  Lately, in
older age, you've gotten sort of crochety and even mean-spirited.  There is still a
lot that's beautiful about you, but most of the focus people have when they think about you
is how hard it is to work with you.  There's hope that you might start opening up to
people, but lots of people have bumper stickers about how much you should
change.

[ncrainbowgrrl]

29. The Sound and the Fury! (by William Faulkner)

Strong-willed but deeply confused, you are trying to come to grips with a major crisis in your life. You can see many different perspectives on the issue, but you're mostly overwhelmed with despair at what you've lost. People often have a hard time understanding you, but they have some vague sense that you must be brilliant anyway. Ultimately, you signify nothing.

(actually- that's pretty accurate. Scary.)

[ncrainbowgrrl]

38. I just did the country quiz- I'm East Timor!

You're East Timor!
You're small and lonely and have finally gotten free of a very bad situation. It seems like everyone was willing to rescue you, though the wait was excrutiating for everyone to wake up and set you free. Now you're still lonely, but happier in the loneliness since you never really liked people to begin with. And people respect you more than you really think they should, using you as an example for what they hope to accomplish.

[ncrainbowgrrl]

41. And my state is Tennessee

You're Tennessee!
A vibrantly musical individual, you probably know how to play multiple instruments. At the heart of your love for music is the guitar, though you have a soft spot for violins, which you refuse to call anything but fiddles. Fiddlesticks aside, you are very thin and have excellent posture. If you ever run for elected office, you won't even be able to get your hometown to support you. I guess that's why they call it the blues.

[jane_pippin]

30. I'm Brave New World

Yikes!

"You're Brave New World!
by Aldous Huxley
With an uncanny ability for predicting the future, you are a true psychic. You can see how the world will change and illuminate the fears of future generations. In the world to come, you see the influence of the media, genetic science, drugs, and class warfare. And while all this might make you happy, you claim the right to be unhappy. While pregnancy might seem painful, test tube babies scare you most. You are obsessed with the word "pneumatic"."

Are they saying that future strife makes me happy? Because that's not true, just so you know. It is true, however, that I like the word pneumatic and am often miserable. :scared:

[qnr]

39. Prufrock and Other Observations

You're 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.

[Reciprocity]

81. Same here.

I'm also a pelican
You're a Pelican!
Always thinking ahead to the future, you love to save things for later. You're not exactly a procrastinator, but you don't mind putting something off or storing things up for a rainy day. Others have said you have a big mouth, but you know that can have its pivotal uses. You're one of the only people who can quiet a horde screaming that something is theirs.
http://bluepyramid.org/ia/aq1.htm?
and
http://bluepyramid.org/ia/squiz.htm
You're New Mexico!
A fan of spelunking and cliff-dwelling, you're the adventurous, enchanting type. It seems like you can never avoid the sun, but that's what built your house in the first place so you'll manage. You probably speak Spanish, and maybe even a long-lost language in addition. And after much careful consideration, you now sometimes agree that drive-through liquor stores are not the safest idea. Even though people think of you as yellow, your favorite question is "red or green?"
and
http://bluepyramid.org/ia/cquiz.htm

You're the United Nations!
Most people think you're ineffective, but you are trying to completely save the world from itself, so there's always going to be a long way to go. You're always the one trying to get friends to talk to each other, enemies to talk to each other, anyone who can to just talk instead of beating each other about the head and torso. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, and you get very schizophrenic as a result. But your heart is in the right place, and sometimes also in New York.

[qnr]

87. I'm a Gila Monster

You're a Gila Monster!
While you like to wear bright and discordant clothing to warn people that you can be dangerous when provoked, most people merely take it to mean you have terrible fashion sense. You try not to care what they think, as you'd rather be on your own, looking around at bugs and rodents. Yes, you're a bit eccentric, though you really resent some of the names you've come to be known by. While many folks don't look for you at all, kids expect to see you at the airport.

[Cobalt Violet]

107. I am too.

I'm not at all long winded.

42. Catch 22

You're Catch-22 by Joseph Heller

Incredibly witty and funny, you have a taste for irony in all that you
see. It seems that life has put you in perpetually untenable situations, and your sense
of humor is all that gets you through them. These experiences have also made you an
ardent pacifist, though you present your message with tongue sewn into cheek. You
could coin a phrase that replaces the word "paradox" for millions of
people.

43. I'm To Kill a Mockingbird

You're 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. In the end, it remains unclear to you whether finches and mockingbirds get along in real life.

Yaaaayyy!!! I <333 this book. Alot. :D

&& for the country, I got Canada! Yaay! I think this quiz thingy likes me...

44. The quiz says "The Guns of August!"

You're The Guns of August!
by Barbara Tuchman

"Though you're interested in war, what you really want to know is what causes war. You're out to expose imperialism, militarism, and nationalism for what they really are. Nevertheless, you're always living in the past and have a hard time dealing with what's going on today. You're also far more focused on Europe than anywhere else in the world. A fitting motto for you might be "Guns do kill, but so can diplomats."


Sounds about right.

[u4ic]

45. Watership Down

You're Watership Down!
by Richard Adams

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.

[u4ic]

46. I'm Chile

You're really skinny, and kind of bumpy in frame, but you're not as rough a person as you used to be. You like long, long, long walks on the beach and avoiding having your rights violated, just like anybody else does. You're even willing to stand up to those with more power and influence than you, trying to bring them to justice. Fight the man!

Pffft...well, they got it all wrong in the first sentence (well, I am kind of bumpy...in the right spots, I guess) :rofl:

[hopein08]

82. I love that book...

I thought I'd hate a book about talking rabbits but it was amazing!

[rockymountaindem]

47. I'm Farenheit 451

You're Fahrenheit 451!
by Ray Bradbury
Having wanted to be a firefighter much of your life, you've recently discovered the job wasn't exactly what you were looking for. While ignorance seems like the result of oppression, it all began with people just wanting to be ignorant. As you realize more about the sordid world around you, you decide to watch less TV and work on your memorization skills. Though your memory will save you in the end, don't forget to practice running from dogs as well.


Not too shabby. I liked that book.

49. Bangladesh!

And Mists of Avalon. That one I could have guessed. But Bangladesh?



You're Bangladesh!
Everyone else keeps eating your food, and as a result it seems like you're starving all the time. Your life is just flooded with problems, and you're pretty sure that everything would be easier if half the people you knew just went away. Unfortunately, they're hungry too, so they might go away in a way you don't want. George Harrison's music becoming wildly popular may be your only hope, but even he's gone away now.

53. You're Les Miserables!

by Victor Hugo
One of the best known people in your community, you have become something of a phenomenon. People have sung about you, danced in your honor, created all manner of art in your name. And yet your story is one of failure and despair, with a few brief exceptions. A hopeless romantic, you'll never stop hoping that more good will come from your failings than is ever possible. Beware detectives and prison guards bearing vendettas.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

54. I'm "Waiting for Godot"

Many people think you're extremely dull, but you're just trying to patient. Really patient. Patient to the point of absurdity, quite frankly. Whatever you're waiting for isn't going to just come along, so you can stop waiting. I promise. Move on with your life. Change of scenery might do you good. Heck, any scenery might do you good. In the meantime, you do make for very interesting conversation.

[terrya]

55. I'm The Handmaid's Tale

You're The Handmaid's Tale!
by Margaret Atwood
An outraged feminist, you have been oppressed and even silenced in your life, fueling your fury against the society as it stands. Your role has been strictly defined by society and you are almost certainly unsatisfied with it. You have some vague idea of how this has come to be, but insufficient power to stop it, let alone reverse the trend. And somehow you blame yourself for everything because people ask you to. Beware people renaming your nation a Republic.

[bluethruandthru]

56. To Kill a Mockingbird!

[miss_american_pie]

57. Mrs. Dalloway

You're Mrs. Dalloway!
by Virginia Woolf
Your life seems utterly bland and normal to the casual observer, but inside you are churning with a million tensions and worries. The company you surround yourself with may be shallow, but their effects upon your reality are tremendously deep. To stay above water, you must try to act like nothing's wrong, but you know that the truth is catching up with you. You're not crazy, you're just a little unwell. But no doctor can help you now.


:rofl:

[YankeyMCC]

58. hmm...might be something to this :)

You're The Catcher in the Rye!
by J.D. Salinger
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.

[KatyMan]

59. You're Prufrock and Other Observations!

You're Prufrock and Other Observations!

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.

67. WHOA.....I'm Anne of Green Gables....what a TRIP....

You're Anne of Green Gables!
by L.M. Montgomery

Bright, chipper, vivid, but with the emotional fortitude of cottage cheese, you make quite an impression on everyone you meet. You're impulsive, rash, honest, and probably don't have a great relationship with your parents. People hurt your feelings constantly, but your brazen honestly doesn't exactly treat others with kid gloves. Ultimately, though, you win the hearts and minds of everyone that matters. You spell your name with an E and you want everyone to know about it.

....Nobody EVER spells my name correctly...they ALWAYS leave out the *E* in my first name...s'why I shortened it from Amberley to just Amber...everyone always tended to leave out the *E*...m'whole life even on my HS diploma...this was trippy accurate!! :D

68. Jurassic Park? JURASSIC PARK?

You combine all the elements of a mad scientist, a brash philosopher, a humble researcher, and a money-hungry attracter of tourists. With all these features, you could build something monumental or get chased around by your own demons. Probably both, in fact. A movie based on your life would make millions, and spawn at least two sequels that wouldn't be very good. Be very careful around islands.

:wtf: :mad:

[ThomCat]

69. I am: Catcher in the Rye

The UN
A Rabbit
and the University of Washington

Not bad. I can see each of these being kind of reasonable.

70. i'm Anne of Green Gables!

what the hell happened x(

71. I, Robot

by Isaac Asimov

While you have established a code of conduct for many generations to
follow, your demeanor is rather cold and calculating. Brought up to serve humans, you
have promised never to harm them, to follow orders, and to protect yourself. Living up
to this code has proved challenging and sometimes even drives you mad. If you were a
type of paper, you would be pulp.

I loved the Robot Series when I was a teen so this isn't a bad result, except for that crack about being cold and calculating.

[calico1]

72. I am Mrs. Dalloway

You're Mrs. Dalloway!
by Virginia Woolf
Your life seems utterly bland and normal to the casual observer, but inside you are churning with a million tensions and worries. The company you surround yourself with may be shallow, but their effects upon your reality are tremendously deep. To stay above water, you must try to act like nothing's wrong, but you know that the truth is catching up with you. You're not crazy, you're just a little unwell. But no doctor can help you now.

Not sure if its accurate. The description doesn't really sound like me. :)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

73. I'm "Loosely Based." I've never heard of it.............

But I must say I find this description quite accurate! :rofl:


You're Loosely Based!
by Storey Clayton
While most people haven't heard of you, you're a really good and interesting person. Rather clever and witty, you crack a lot of jokes about the world around you. You do have a serious side, however, where your interest covers the homeless and the inequalities of society. You're good at bringing people together, but they keep asking you what your name means.

[skygazer]

75. Well, it certainly fits me - Catch-22

Incredibly witty and funny, you have a taste for irony in all that you see. It seems that life has put you in perpetually untenable situations, and your sense of humor is all that gets you through them. These experiences have also made you an ardent pacifist, though you present your message with tongue sewn into cheek. You could coin a phrase that replaces the word "paradox" for millions of people.

[RetroLounge]

76. Apparently I like Straw hats

You're Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
by Mark Twain

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.

85. Hehehe.., you! Start reading and we expect a report tonight.

78. I'm "A Theory of Justice" by John Rawls...which I've never heard of...

"In the beginning, you lived in a town. The town had many problems! Rather than moving, you decided to come up with the idea for the best town ever. Going all the way back to the original position, you created the idea for the best town ever! Lo and behold, the best town ever looked almost identical to the town you lived in. You decided to stay in the town. Now you resent people mistaking your refined thought experiments for "the wall of stupidity" in high school debate rounds."

Kind of sounds like me, but I have no idea.

[hopein08]

79. I am also Bosnia-Herzegovina

"You've just been through a big tragedy. You weren't sure you were going to make it at all. Now that you have, there's a lot to pick back up in your life, and not enough people are helping you. You just wanted a little more freedom, a chance to be away from those who thought poorly of you. Now it's time to build up some confidence, and it looks like you have a good chance at that. But you'll need a lot of therapy."

[hopein08]

80. And North Carolina

"A phenomenal basketball player, you enjoy soaring to great heights. Flying is probably your favorite activity, and you're willing to board any plane at almost any time. Physically, you're a little teapot, short and stout. And you're rather prone to wearing capes. After a long search, you're pretty sure you've finally found Mr. Wright. Hey, does he have a brother?"

But I don't play basketball and I've never flown...so go figure.

[NYdemocrat089]

83. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis

I'm surprised. I don't remember ever liking the book very much.

[jobycom]

86. Love in the Time of Cholera! Never even read it

Like Odysseus in a work of Homer, you demonstrate undying loyalty by sleeping with as many people as you possibly can. But in your heart you never give consent! This creates a strange quandary of what love really means to you. On the one hand, you've loved the same person your whole life, but on the other, your actions barely speak to this fact. Whatever you do, stick to bottled water. The other stuff could get you killed.

[Broken_Hero]

90. great, WaterShip down...:)

You're Watership Down!
by Richard Adams
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.

92. I'm Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse

ironically enough, I just finished reading that 3 weeks ago

[Divameow77]

93. I am

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.


The description isn't accurate at all :shrug:

[Fleshdancer]

94. Roots???

You're Roots!
by Alex Haley
While almost everyone agrees that you're brilliant, no one knows quite how to categorize you. Some say that you're a person with an amazing family tree. Some say that you're just a darn good storyteller. Others say that you're both and don't much care where to draw the line. What is known is that your people have been through a great number of trials and that you are where you are because of hard work. You have nothing to lose but your chains.

:shrug:

[myrna minx]

95. Wow: The Guns of August.

You're The Guns of August!
by Barbara Tuchman
Though you're interested in war, what you really want to know is what causes war. You're out to expose imperialism, militarism, and nationalism for what they really are. Nevertheless, you're always living in the past and have a hard time dealing with what's going on today. You're also far more focused on Europe than anywhere else in the world. A fitting motto for you might be "Guns do kill, but so can diplomats."

[bikebloke]

96. You're Siddhartha!

by Hermann Hesse

You simply don't know what to believe, but you're willing to try anything once. Western values, Eastern values, hedonism and minimalism, you've spent some time in every camp. But you still don't have any idea what camp you belong in. This makes you an individualist of the highest order, but also really lonely. It's time to chill out under a tree. And realize that at least you believe in ferries.

97. Kama Sutra

99. You're Ulysses!

101. mine is "One Hundred Years of Solitude"

Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Guess I should read it now, huh?

108. I would.

It's an excellent book, Marquez's best.

103. Master Harold"... and the Boys

""

You're "Master Harold"... and the Boys!
by Athol Fugard
Even though you should have realized it for years, you're only just starting to understand how bad your society is. It's been keeping some of your best friends down for ages, and even you have been complicit with this system. When you make a mess, someone else is quick to clean it. When you need help, someone else is quick to your rescue. But when they point out injustice, you've pulled the wool over your eyes. Until now. If you ever need a cast, it will be small.

[NNadir]

104. Damn if this didn't identify one of my very most favorite books!!!

If you read this book and you're not a pacifist, you need to read it again.

[citizen snips]

105. I'm 1984

by George Orwell


You have this uncanny feeling that you're always being watched. Thus life has become a bit of a show as you try to portray yourself as much more reputable than you actually are. All around you, people seem to accept an unending stream of lies and propaganda without flinching. Your only hope may be a star-crossed love affair, but pain seems stonger than love. If you have any older brothers, be very wary of them.
