Which Book are you?

Taking my lead from MamaPJ. I decided to try the which book are you quiz. Oddly I was rather pleased with the result. This is somewhat how I see myself. Must read it.




You're The Things They Carried!

by Tim O'Brien

Harsh and bitter, you tell it like it is. This usually comes in short,
dramatic spurts of spilling your guts in various ways. You carry a heavy load, and this
has weighed you down with all the horrors that humanity has to offer. Having seen and
done a great deal that you aren't proud of, you have no choice but to walk forward,
trudging slowly through ongoing mud. In the next life, you will come back as a water
buffalo.

This cracks me up. Rae, over at "Rae's Confessions" is also coming back as a water buffalo. I had to disagree. Aren't we supposed to evolve from one life to the next?

I'm "Watership Down" and apparently I'm amazing, if only I didn't talk about bunnies so much. WTF?

That was a fun quiz. Like BizyLizy, I was just at Rae's blog and she came up as the same book -- and you are totally not coming back as a water buffalo either! :)

It's a beautifully written book. Although I think the description here misses some of the true humanity and decency underlying the why these loads bear so much weight.

You should read it. It's a treat to the senses, if not necessarily the most joyous of reads.
