pretty correct actually :)Your Personality: Exacting Serial Reader!
Start quiz
Your responses showed you fitting into two different groups - the exacting reader and the serial reader.
The expression 'so many books, so little time!' sums up your life. You love books but you rarely have as much time to read as you'd like - so you're very particular about the books you choose.
In fact, you're a publisher's dream, because once you discover a favorite writer you tend to stick with him/her through thick and thin and eagerly await the next in the series; but even you need to discover some new blood from time to time!
I'm a serial reader so people you better watch out lol!!! Hahahaha
Another All-Rounder here — I think that's pretty accurate.
Exacting eclectic here.The Exacting Eclectic Reader

Sounds right
Took the test - how funny :DThe Exacting Reader

Sounds about right :D

All Rounder for me as well! Looks like we have All Rounders all around.
Yep, I'm an All Rounder too! I fit into three categories:
Involved Reader: You don't just love to read books, you love to read about books. For you, half the fun of reading is the thrill of the chase - discovering new books and authors, and discussing your finds with others.
Exacting Reader: You love books but you rarely have as much time to read as you'd like - so you're very particular about the books you choose.
Serial Reader: You're a publisher's dream, because once you discover a favorite writer you tend to stick with him/her through thick and thin and eagerly await the next in the series; but even you need to discover some new blood from time to time!
Looking at these descriptions; it pretty much fits me to a T. :)
Awesome quiz Brenda, thanks! :)
Huh. I don't know why I'm just now discovering this? But, never mind. I'm an All Rounder as well! It doesn't surprise me though as I definitely fit into all categories. =o)

I'm an All-RounderInvolved Reader: You don't just love to read books, you love to read about books. For you, half the fun of reading is the thrill of the chase - discovering new books and authors, and discussing your finds with others.
Exacting Reader: You love books but you rarely have as much time to read as you'd like - so you're very particular about the books you choose.
Serial Reader: Once you discover a favorite writer you tend to stick with him/her through thick and thin.
Eclectic Reader: You read for entertainment but also to expand your mind. You're open to new ideas and new writers, and are not wedded to a particular genre or limited range of authors.
And I have to say, the quiz is pretty accurate!
The Serial Eclectic ReaderYour responses show that you are both a serial reader and an eclectic reader, which indicates that you both read widely and frequently.
As a serial reader you're loyal to your favorite authors, but as an eclectic reader you're also open to new ideas and new writers, and are not wedded to a particular genre. That you manage to both keep up with your favorite authors and explore new writers indicates that you are likely to be what the research companies like to term a "heavy reader" - and a BookBrowse membership might be just what you've been looking for!
Yeahhhhhh that's pretty much me! :)
Apparently I'm an eclectic reader!I actually thought I was more of an involved or exacting reader - I love to talk or read about books and searching them up. I also tend to stick to the same genre and type of books instead of branching out, so it's interesting that I'm an eclectic reader.

Eclectic is good - never get bored.

Haha, yes, that is true. :)
Good quiz! I am an Eclectic reader it seems,though personally I feel the term 'Omnivorous reader' suites me better.
Ohhh - I'm an All Rounder and I have to agree with it LOL.
I'm a Exacting ReaderThe expression 'so many books, so little time!' sums up your life. You love books but you rarely have as much time to read as you'd like - so you're very particular about the books you choose.
Yes this is me :)

Although i got all rounder. Exacting reader is really me!

Yeah, that sounds like me :)
I'm an all-rounder.The All-Rounder
Your responses showed you fitting into three different personalities:
Involved Reader: You don't just love to read books, you love to read about books. For you, half the fun of reading is the thrill of the chase - discovering new books and authors, and discussing your finds with others.
Exacting Reader: You love books but you rarely have as much time to read as you'd like - so you're very particular about the books you choose.
Serial Reader: You're a publisher's dream, because once you discover a favorite writer you tend to stick with him/her through thick and thin and eagerly await the next in the series; but even you need to discover some new blood from time to time!
I am also an Eclectic ReaderNo surprises there!
I'm an "All-Rounder". Just like me to like a bit of everything and (lol) I'm a bit 'rounder' than I like to be, physically.
I'm an All-Rounder too!!!It's probably accurate :)
I'm an All Rounder too! Guess that's right - not too much I won't read (except erotica and extreme horror!)

I got Exacting Serial Reader. Very interesting.

I also got "all rounder" - a combination of Involved Reader, Exacting Reader and Eclectic Reader. Like you, Jen, I think I'd have been more on the serial end a year or more ago. Joining goodreads and taking part in several of the Aussie Readers challenges, in addition to the Popsugar and Pingel Sisters' Annual Challenges, has definitely made me a wider reader - I've discovered (or re-discovered) genres and authors I might not otherwise have happened upon. Onward and upward!

Well I’ll be!...I’m a: Serial Reader
You may read a lot or a little, but either way you're a publisher's dream, because once you discover a favorite writer you stick with him/her through thick and thin and eagerly await the next in the series; but even you need to discover some new blood from time to time!.......yep
I'm an exacting serial reader, and the description sounds just like me

Nice try, BookBrowse :)
Apparently I am an all rounder made up of exacting, serial and eclectic reader. I can handle that description.
An all rounder too. As with most things I'm a jack of all trades and master of none.
I got the All Rounder which sounds like me
Mod
“So many books, so little time”. Yep that’s me.

It's true. I want them all.Your Reading Personality:
All-Rounder!
Your responses show you fitting equally into all four reading personalities:
Involved Reader: You don't just love to read books, you love to read about books. For you, half the fun of reading is the thrill of the chase - discovering new books and authors, and discussing your finds with others.
Exacting Reader: You love books but you rarely have as much time to read as you'd like - so you're very particular about the books you choose.
Serial Reader: Once you discover a favorite writer you tend to stick with them through thick and thin.
Eclectic Reader: You read for entertainment but also to expand your mind. You're open to new ideas and new writers and are not wedded to a particular genre or limited range of authors.
Good quiz Brenda, thanks!
