Quiz: Do You Know the Authors of These Books?



You love reading books so much you even 'stalk' your favorite books' authors.  After all, these awesome books won't even be available if their authors did not decide to write them.  So as a tribute to these outstanding writers, let's do this quiz from ProProfs.com by sharonrasco.  

For the fields below, just enter your desired name and any letter combination on the ID field.






Unfortunately, I only got three seven (I rechecked, I did not cheat, I swear!) correct!  I totally have to widen the range of books I am reading.

Tell me what you got on the comment section below!

Quiz: Shelving Books Like Librarians Do


Have you ever wondered if you could become a librarian?  Well, I certainly did, and I even imagined myself being opposite every librarian stereotype there is:  loud, talkative to visitors - recommending every book the library has, will read forever instead of vigilantly watching out for noisemakers, and organizing the whole library by color - they certainly have enough books to hold every color in the spectrum, right?


So to explore the odds of us being a really awesome librarian/non-librarian, I grabbed this quiz over at ProProfs.com by mebb.  It's not so much as a holistic librarian test, it just explores one aspect:  Shelving.  Fairly easy, right?  Especially for those with compulsive organizing behaviors :D Like uh, me?







Remember to tell me your results!  Mine was a whopping:




Wow.  'Didn't know I had it in me :D

Quiz: The Ultimate Twilight Saga

Okay, I will now finally admit to you:  There are three book series in the world that I have not yet read, ever.  The Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins, Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling, and The Lord of the RingsTwilight series by Stephenie Mayer I have finished every book, except the novella about Bree Tanner.  Why?  You ask me, when I do not even like series books, let alone paranormal fiction, and especially vampires?  It is because of the pure and simple reason that I did not have anything better to do. by J.R.R. Tolkien.  


You see, I read the complete series at work.  My first job was not as a nurse, I was working as a 'glorified typist' who reviewed medical records day in and day out.  I sat in front of the computer and typed eight to sixteen hours in a day, five days a week.  There were times when I would get really bored and tired with what I was doing and my wrists would ache and shake with all the typing I did.  So one day, I found this folder on my computer (which was also used by other employees) that contained all these digital books and one of them was the Twilight series.  I read them all, and I was able to finish them in one week, while keeping ahead of my deadlines.  Reading books energized me, even though what I read was not something I was totally into.

Word of caution though:  Never, ever, ever do what I did, it might get you fired.

I later learned that those books belonged to my boss.

Again, thank you to ProProfs.com and Twilight Obsessed for this quiz!




And don't forget to share your result!  As for mine, well it's safe to say that I failed, despite my reading the complete series.  :D

Quiz: Which Romeo and Juliet Character Are You?

If I am being such a cynic, I would say that Romeo and Juliet is not a love story, but a long-winded, undeserved tribute to two spoiled children who would not listen to their parents and killed themselves because they could not have their own way.

But I am not a cynic, although I am not a romantic either.  But I do appreciate the story and the lesson within its words and events.  So for this week, I would like to see which Romeo & Juliet character each of us are like by answering this quiz from ProProfs.com by Natalie Sung.






Curious about what I got?  Here goes:




My Result: Friar Lawrence
on quiz: Which Romeo & Juliet character are you??!
You are very intelligent in many things and from experience, you are wise and usually give advice to other friends. Your friends always come to you when in need of help, and you are always willing to do anything in order to help them. You are loyal and can keep a secret well. However, you try to tell the truth as often as possible. You want to keep a good reputation and will sometimes disappoint people to keep it.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this quiz.  Just ignore the description below and go on and click Start.  This quiz is brought to us again by ProProfs.com and created by abcblog.

Quiz: Which Hunger Games Character Are You Most Like?

 

The Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins is one of those, I'm ashamed to say, books that I have never read yet - like Harry Potter.  But despite that, I am still interested by its story and might read the books in the future.  But for now, let's just get into a fun quiz mode, courtesy of ProProfs.com and the creator of this particular quiz, bmckg.

I did not answer the quiz yet because I did not want to spoil the excitement for when I decide to read the books.  But I will answer this once I'm done reading.  This quiz is mainly for those who have read the books, which is probably everybody - except me.



Don't forget to share your quiz result on the Comments section so you could compare your answers with everyone!

Quiz: Which Harry Potter Adult Character Are You Most Compatible With?

I am back with another quiz!  I wanted to do something really book-related but have decided that 'How Much Do You Know About Harry Potter' quizzes are already too common, and besides, I've never read Harry so it's sort of inappropriate and unfair.  Maybe when I've decided to change my mind and read up on all the books then I might put up that sort of quiz here, using all that I have learned.  But for now, for something different, let's see who we are most compatible with among the adult characters from that famous series, thanks to ameliasnape12345678 from again, ProProfs.com.

Have fun and don't forget to share your quiz result in the Comments section all right?

I got Dumbledore, and though I haven't read any of the books, I have an idea about him during hour-long sessions of Harry Potter fan-girl talk between two of my friends. I think he's kinda cute, but I heard he's gay, right?

Quiz: How Well Do You Know These Teen Fiction Book Covers?

And I am back with another fun quiz courtesy of ProProfs.com and today's quiz maker, emagain.  I literally squealed with delight when I found this quiz on that site as I was really looking for something fun and a bit challenging.  And book related.  Have you noticed that I have been posting quizzes every week now?  I thought this would be great entertainment for us readers and bloggers while we are not thinking about reading and/or blogging, which is what?  Less than one percent at a time?  I know, we are all totally hooked on books and even these quizzes I grab are book-related, but that does not mean we can't enjoy it, right?

So enjoy answering this quiz and you can brag (or rant - whichever way is allowed) about your scores in the comments section.  Game!




Was it too hard/easy?  Are you having fun yet?  There were some books in there that I got really curious about and darn, my TBR pile just got bigger!

UPDATE:  I forgot to include my score when I did this quiz, I got 17 out 20 correct.  Not bad, right?  Maybe hanging out at bookstores does help.  :D

Quiz: If Your Life Story Was A Book, What Book Would It Be?

Ever wondered how your life story would turn out if a book was written about it?  Did you ever feel like your life could have been a book bestseller but you just weren't sure if writing an autobiography is the way to go?  Well, here's your chance to find out!

I would like to think that my life is simple enough and not that worth too much attention.  Certainly not book worthy.  But it would be thrilling to find a book that would relate to my life story.  So when I found this quiz on ProProfs Quiz Maker from adamadamadam, I answered it and was surprised to find that my book would be The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger.  One of my favorite books of all time!  I used to think that Holden and I had a lot of things in common so this result was really awesome. 

Take the quiz now to  find out what book your life story would be!




It would be awesome if you could share your quiz result in the comments section.  Let's have some fun comparing answers!

The Zombie Survival Quiz

I'm not much of a paranormal fiction fan, but I like me some zombie stories - especially funny ones like I Kissed A Zombie and I Liked It by Adam Selzer, and of course, The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks.  But once those zombie stories come true, they would not be funny, ever.  So in this quiz from ProProfs by deadishere, check out if you can survive the undead horror that are zombies:




Want to know my result?  Here's what I got:



I will survive!  Yeah!


Tell me what you get okay?

Quiz: What Kind of Bookworm Are You?

I have another quiz again for you!  This time, it's sort of a personality that I got from Shanna Miles on ProProfs.com - I would have loved to make a quiz of my own but what with lack of time, I had to make do with this.  But it's really fun and it's nice to get to know what kind of book lover we are.

After taking this quiz, I would love if you could take the time to comment on what you got, it would be fun to compare results!

Not Doing Anything on Valentine's Day? Why Not Try Doing This for Fun? NO CHEATING!

It's that time of the year when the color of the day is red, paper hearts abound the streets, and candy, chocolates, and flowers are sold at double their ordinary price.  Lovers are blushing and laughing amongst themselves and single people everywhere try to ignore the fact that they are dateless and alone. 

As for us readers and bloggers, we have a great excuse not to get caught up in all the hype.  We have our books and blogs to tend to.  But sometimes, it does get a little boring.  So why don't you join me in doing a different activity?  No, not smashing a heart-shaped piñata, just answering a short quiz that will surely put your brain to work. 

However, if you already know the answers to the questions below, you could still do it, or just go to the comments section and comment away with your Valentine's Day message to your most favorite book.  I will do the first comment so you could have an example.

The answers to the questions below would be posted on Thursday, and I promise you would laugh your head off when they're revealed.  But please, so we don't spoil the fun, NO CHEATING!

I would have liked to make this a giveaway but right now I'm stocking on giveaway prizes that I would be doing sometime this year.  I promise you it's going to be epic, so please just bear with me for this giveaway-less activity.

Ready to test your brain and have a good laugh?  Let's go!


Happy Valentine's Day to all of you!
