The Count of Monte Cristo

What is your literary personality?

You scored as:
A classic novel.

Almost everyone showers praise upon you for your depth and enduring relevance. According to your acolytes, everything you say is timeless, erudite and meaningful. Of course, none of them actually listen to you.
Nobody listens to you at all, but it’s fashionable to claim you as a
friend. Fond of obscure words, antiquated notions and libraries, you never have a problem finding someone to hang out with. The fact that they end up using you to balance their kitchen tables is an unfortunate side effect, but you’re used to being used for others’ benefit. Oh the burden of being Great.

Huh. Didn’t know I had acolytes. Weird. And I’ve certainly been used by friends in the past, but those are past friends – I don’t let people do that anymore. The truth is, I could probably be any of these things, depending on the day and mood I’m in. But my favorite novel of all time is the Count of Monte Cristo, which I actually permanently borrowed from my elementary school library in fifth grade because I loved it so much. That book is probably the main reason I’ve never sought revenge on anyone – just waited and hoped until things changed. That’s a very difficult lesson for many people to learn. Some of the movie versions screw up the novel version, where Edmund doesn’t end up with Mercedes and that eliminate the important character of Haydee. This is an amzing book to read, if you never have.

( a bit worried about that romance novel score…ew… and the textbook and techie scores seem awfully low….)

Thanks to Booklust!
