For shame!

The Guardian has just posted a books quiz of 2008 that gauges how well you've been following this year's book news. I took this quiz with a swagger, confident I'd pull out an ace score.

Unfortunately, I was wrong.

Out of a possible 33, I scored a 17. I am deeply ashamed.

To see how you fare, click here, then return and let me know how you've done. Hopefully you fare better than I did.

Here's my results:
" You scored 18 out of a possible 33. Not entirely bad. You've clearly read a few books. Just not very many."

To be honest, I don't keep up with most of the current book news so I'm not all that surprised at my results. :)

I scored a 16. Deeply ashamed. I try to keep up with current news but when things don't interest me - like celeb bios - I never even bother to try.

Oh well! It was a fun quiz anyway.

I scored 16. In our defense, it was a very Anglocentered quiz.

I'd have liked to see which ones I got right and which ones I got wrong.

I made the same score as you, but I was stunned to have done so well.

Happy Book Year!
