Thought some of you might enjoy this quiz and score high. I actually didn't score that high since I don't really own any books other than cookbooks (use the library), don't use electronic readers, and have never missed a stop on mass transit because of reading. So my score was only 16:

Fun quiz! I got 25 but don't really think I'm that much of a book nerd.

My score was 42.

I've loved to read since I learned how.

I've read a six hundred page novel in one session.

39. I recommend books but I don't bug people about whether they've read them. And I've never been in the position of needing to take a bus or train - at least not so that I could afford to forget my stop since that would have been in foreign countries. So I haven't missed a stop due to reading. And my workout routine involves slinging hay bales on a regular basis. If I could figure out how to read during that I would. I am open to ideas about that though.

40. I could never read in the bathtub, and I've never named a pet after a literary figure, though I've thought of "Emily."
