Lalitha - Congratulations!! Trust you had a good week on the hot seat! I have rather stepped in late ( have been a bit inactive on the IF owing to work travel), but dont want to miss my question to you while I can, before your week on the hot seat ends - so here goes -

If you were a book yourself , and you could feel and think for yourself, what would your thoughts be like - what would you want the reviews to be like, what would you want to be all about - a book about ? , who would you want your readers to be ? - A day in your life as a book really...

Look forward to your thoughts...

Thanks for the quiz🤗. Here are my results.

For 60 % you are: You are ROMANCE. You are romantic and like things to be beautiful and classy. You also prefer things formal, and enjoy relationships a lot.
23.69 % of 1030 Quiz participants had this profile!

You could also get this result:
For 30 % you are: You are a CLASSIC. You are completely normal, and are definitely down to earth. You have plans for the future which generally involve a good education, and are unlikely to do something like run off and elope. You've probably got a lot of friends because people generally find you endearing.

Or even this one:
For 10 % you are: You are FANTASY. You live in a dream world, and enjoy fairy tales, although you may not admit it. Your one wish would be something fantastic like to be able to do magic or fly. You want to believe in magic, even if you don't. You are constantly daydreaming, and are very creative.

Or even this one:
For 0 % you are: You are HORROR. You are constantly telling scary stories with which you are obsessed, and you think death is always just around the corner. You have a somewhat dark sense of humor, and are pretty much normal except for that.

Or even this one:
For 0 % you are: You are HUMOR. You like to joke around with your friends, and you have a lot of friends. You like to be the center of attention, but everyone you know also wants you to be the center of attention because you're so darned funny, so that's alright. Everyone likes you for the most part, but you can sometimes come off as a bit cocky.

"I've been stuck on this shelf too long - far too long - it's not fair! What have I ever done? My cover is glossy with newness, my pages do not have one rip or tear, and I'm interesting to read. Okay, I admit it, I'm beautiful! Yet, she won't read me! "Wieland puts me to sleep," she says. As if! I may have pardoned her disinterest in me if she simply did not like to read, but she does! She reads Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter and all those mighty adventurous novels! What do I lack? I'm well written, and my content is suitable for her age. If only she'll give me a chance, I know she would love me! *Sigh* Great, now she's packing me away. No - No - she's giving me away! Nooooooo!
Well, I'm in my new home now, and I must say, it's a much better place than where I came from. Bob loves to read me. He says Charles Brockden Brown is his favorite writer, and I'm his favorite book. *Sigh happily* This is life!"
