What Classic Novel Describes Your Life?

[Michelle]

This may not be the right section but it seemed to best fit.

I don't normally do these quizzes but I was curios just what sort of book I may get

I got Charlotte's Web, which I loved as a kid

Empathetic and Family Oriented, E. B. White's CHARLOTTE'S WEB does a lovely job of describing your homey life. Kind and understanding, your are the epitome of empathy, and have a true gift for confiding in others. You tend to be an optimist, or try to be anyway, but have had your fair share of grievances. You are a rare individual in your ability to recognize that no one would be able to appreciate the good times, without having first experienced the bad.

What did you get? And are you happy with the results?

I don't usually do these things but what the hey.

I got...

An underdog in every sense of the word, Tolkien's LORD OF THE RINGS does a masterful job of playing out your struggles. Though you may not be the most intimidating of individuals, you are not weak - far from it. People are constantly trying to put you down in life, and you always manage to prove them wrong; Sometime even finding yourself on top. Life has taken you some very strange places, and you've developed a taste for the fantastic in the process. You're determined, driven, and have a penchant for the surreal!

[Rosemary (grooving with the Picts)]

I always do these things.

And then laugh at how wrong they are.

Selfless and Morally Sound, your story unfolds within the heartbreakingly honest pages of Harper Lee's TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD. Tride, true, and honest - yours is a life of helping others. Intolerance and bigotry infuriate you, and you have a very hard time understanding how anyone could think in such a manner. You are driven to do good by others, not only because it's right - but because that's simply who you are.

Mine should be Kes, but I'll give it a go.

Correct to some extent:

Independent and Brash, Jane Austen's PRIDE AND PREJUDICE could have been written about your life!Your intelligence and stubborn nature has brought you to where you stand today, and to say you surprise others on a daily basis would be an understatement. In your mind, nothing is impossible - And if anyone chooses to stand in your way they simply become another obstacle. You believe you were meant to do great things, regardless of race, sex, or religion - and nothing of the sort will ever stand in your way.

[Patti (baconater)]

Tride, Rosemary? Tride?

Love how pretentious they try to be, then...typo!

[Michelle]

Some interesting results there.

Shame about the typo but I bet they happen and go unchecked all the time on these sort of things

[Rosemary (grooving with the Picts)]

I've been looking it up trying to work out if I was or not! :/

[Kath]

Couldn't do it. The questions are stupid. Usually the answer is 'none of the above'.

[David]

I have to admit to choosing the closest that wasn't quite right.

[Bookworm]

I got charlottes web, is definitely me.
I always enjoy doing these quizzes.

[David]

I got To Kill a Mockingbird, which... meh. I only read the book for the first time a few weeks ago. A bit too po-faced to be me.

Back when I was young and took myself seriously and had an overcoat it would have been something by Sartre or Camus, but I can't take seriousness seriously any more.

I think the Reggie Perrin books would be closer, or Wilt, these days.

[Kath]

Are you The Wilt Alternative, David?

[Patti (baconater)]

Naw. He's spunky.

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

He may want to join this writers group then...

Harper Lee's "To Kill A Mockingbird" Which is a shame as I don't like the book all that much.

But they probably didn't have Kathy Acker's "Blood & Guts In High School" in their algorithm

[Katy]

I got Harper Lee's 'To Kill a Mockingbird'

[David]

Could well be. I keep intending to reread the Wilt books at some point.

Actually Milan Kundera's The Joke could be my book, about a bloke who gets in a lot of trouble for telling a joke.

Come again?

Haha!

[Richard]

'Dracula', apparently. I guess that's preferable to 'Diary of a Nobody'.

[Desley (Cat fosterer)]

Found that really hard, as so many of them just weren't relevant. Ended up with To Kill a Mockingbird, I suppose it was kind of true.

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

"Waiting for Godot" describes mine right now...

[Patti (baconater)]

* tells Godot to hurry up*

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

Thanks Patti - he's taking forever!

Pride and prejudice. And yeah, I can see myself in those gowns pretty easily. (Fittingly am just about to go to thee cinema and watch Pride)
