Directions: Mark an ‘x’ for each statement that applies to you.
[ ] 1. I have dropped a book on my face. More than once.
[ ] 2. On social media, I follow writers, not singers and movie stars.
[ ] 3. “Unputdownable” IS a word.
[ ] 4. My idea of a great weekend is starting a new book.
[ ] 5. My fingers type “Google” into the web address bar but somehow I keeping winding up at Goodreads.
[ ] 6. If I leave the house without a book I feel naked I have a mini-panic attack. I never leave the house without a book.
[ ] 7. I freely admit I’ve hugged, kissed and/or lovingly patted a book.
[ ] 8. My favorite thing in my wallet is my library card.
[ ] 9. I plan road trips just to listen to audio books.
[ ] 10. While reading a book I am oblivious to the outside world. People can shout my name, gesture rudely, but short of bodily injury, I will not notice them.
[ ] 11. I’m happy if there’s a long wait at the mechanic/doctor’s office/airport because it means I get to read.
[ ] 12. When putting together a travel checklist, my first item is always: “books to read.”
[ ] 13. While standing in line to buy a new book I am. . . reading a book.
If you answered “yes” to any of the items on this checklist you are officially a book junkie. For further confirmation, try this test too: “How to Tell if You’re a Book Junkie.”
Happy reading!

Haha! I got 7. :p (But I’m not a big fan of audio books or ebooks. So, I’m kind of nixed in a couple of those categories. Technically, I always have books on my phone, though. Haha!)

Actually, I will notice them and get annoyed because they’re interrupting the story.

If I checked them all, does this mean I need an intervention?!

Um, I’m pretty sure I put an X by all of them other than the one about audio books, and that’s only because I get too distracted to listen as closely as I’d like to. 🙂

I know what you mean about trying to paying attention to audio books. That’s why I try to choose audio books that are maybe more light-hearted or generally don’t need to be listened to as closely.

hahaha oh goodness I answered yes to them all!! I can’t even type “g” into my search bar without goodreads coming up! and I found myself rocking back and forth stroking serpent king when I finished it cos it was too emotional (I didn’t put that in my review- but I should have!) Great post!!

From one book junkie to another, The Serpent King certainly deserved to be pet. What an eloquent, moving story.
