The Big Read reckons that the average adult has only read 6 of the top 100 books they've printed. Well let's see.

1) Look at the list and bold those you have read.
2) Italicise those you intend to read.
3) Underline the books you LOVE.
4) Reprint this list in your own journal so we can try and track down these people who've read 6 and force books upon them ;-)

Your Score: The Basic Feminist


You are 78% on your way to being a Feminist!



You're a Feminist! Congratulations!

You have a good idea of what sexism is, how to avoid it, and how to stand up for women and/or yourself. You might have read some basic Feminist literature or thought in passing, and thought that it was pretty good. Sometimes you baulk a little at overtly identifying yourself as a Feminist due to the negative stigma. Don't be ashamed of being right! Just keep on doing what you're doing and exploring more ways to treat everyone with respect because of their humanity, not their parts, and you're helping to fix the problem!

Your Score: Pure Nerd


82 % Nerd, 47% Geek, 43% Dork




For The Record:



A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.

A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.

A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.



You scored better than half in Nerd, earning you the title of: Pure Nerd.



The times, they are a-changing. It used to be that being exceptionally smart led to being unpopular, which would ultimately lead to picking up all of the traits and tendences associated with the "dork." No-longer. Being smart isn't as socially crippling as it once was, and even more so as you get older: eventually being a Pure Nerd will likely be replaced with the following label: Purely Successful.



Congratulations!





Thanks Again! -- THE NERD? GEEK? OR DORK? TEST

Ok hyenas - I'm really bored here at work. Since I've been listening to the Harry Potter books on MP3 from start to finish (I'm just starting the Half Blood Prince), I was thinking about how you would rate the 7 books, and why. Rate them with #1 being the best to #7 being the worst.

Spoilers for all 7 books ahoy )

These are the top 106 books most often
marked as "unread" by LibraryThing's users
(as of today). As usual, bold what you have read, italicize those you started
but couldn't finish, and strike through what you couldn't stand. Add an
asterisk to those you've read more than once. Underline those on your to-read
list.
