Pretty Right On

I get the BuzzFeed Books Newsletter and when it is delivered to my inbox, I enjoy reading through the various lists, articles and occasional quizzes. This one was pretty right on - about the home in my heart and how I approach reading:

Can We Guess Where You Live Based On Your Taste In Books?

1. You got: The Mountain States

   You live in one of the most interesting geographical regions in the country, and that’s how you like your books — always switching things up and keeping you on your toes. The landscape around you is so beautiful that you also have high standards for the writing in books you read.

I had a hard time picking a favorite classic. It came down to these three, in order:

1. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee (selected)
2. The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald 
3. On the Road by Jack Kerouac

I also landed on two quotes, but had to select Kerouac because - Kerouac:

1. "The only ones for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved."
2. "Everyone has a moment in history which belongs particularly to him."

I also had a hard time deciding where I most like to read, mostly because it's everywhere. But I landed on "the pool" because it is where I hope to be most of the summer.

The Tattered Cover Bookstore and Barbara Kingsolver were also easy selections. 

Oh, I do love this quiz.

Also, this was an added bonus:
