what's your reading personality?

What's your reading personality?

Your Result:
The Pundit
You like a book to be a springboard to future conversations, whether it's a best-selling novel, the biography of a political figure or celebrity or a think book that gives you fresh subjects to bring up at a dinner table or at the office water cooler. You pay attention to reviews, and when friends on social media praise The Flamethrowers, My Brilliant Friend or Not That Sort of Girl, or commentators on television programs lavish attention on a new nonfiction book, like War Hospital or Elizabeth Warren's A Fighting Chance, it increases the likelihood that you will read it. Whatever your guiding style of reading may be, if you have a Pundit element as well, you are strongly tempted to read books that people in your circle are reading, too, so your private experience of reading will acquire a social dimension.

I'm a Mirror reader: Mirror readers are drawn to books, happy or sad, that reflect their current experience, centering on family life. If you are supporting a family, or being supported yourself as you raise kids, you may find validation—as well as cause for concern...don't know if I believe that. I think those questions needed more choices!!

I'm "the judge" because I like stories about right and wrong and justice will out, etc.
