Hmmm. The graphs didn't show up on mine.

Graph still won't show up. And I actually had the same score for Dedicated Reader and Obsessive-Compulsive Bookworm. Hee. |

Funny, I don't read more than one book at a time, but I usually finish a book in just a day or two, depending on how much time I have. Once I start a book, I can't wait to see how it ends.

I am another dedicated reader. It's funny, though, because while I am constantly reading children's/young adult books, I can't stand most adult fiction. I don't think I've read an adult fiction novel in YEARS! If I'm not reading children's, I'm reading non-fiction. I wonder what kind of reader that really makes me.

Pippa, your graph is showing up fine for me, but I still can't see the graph bars for mine.

I disagree with my results because there were three questions I couldn't answer since I generally have at least four sections of the Sunday NYTimes with me at any moment - so I have something to read, but it's not a book.

We read a lot, but not all of our reading is an actual book. And while waiting in line, I can't sit and read when I have the kids with me.

Well, not anymore. Of course, here, the mail delivery does not come to our homes - we have a little post office that is automated, so there is no standing in lines at all. If I actually need a live person, I go while they are all in school. But before that, I had no choice. And for some reason, my kids can not act right in a post office. I have no idea what fires them up in there!
My sig line is what I keep telling my children. LOL
