Thank you so much for your time, but keep in mind if you don't share your results in the comments section it is pointless!
Your ending joke: Why did the buffalo cross the road?
A: To sue the people eating at Buffalo Wild Wings (they aren't smart enough to know it's chicken)!
P.S: I only put the "don't like reading or am illiterate" choice so I didn't get angry comments telling me to respect the minority or something.

Hi Maria--

1)B. I buy hundreds of dollars of books every year. But I can quit any time I want. Really.
2)D. Yes. I've read the Harry Potter Books and I just finished a book called, "Ender's Game" that was targeted to teens. It was very good.
3)B,D,G. I grew up on Hardy Boys books and Agatha Christie (when I got a bit older.) Science Fiction is new to me, but I like the fact that these books still tell stories. History is just amazing.
4)C and sometimes A.
5)B.
I love reading and split things between books about the Bible, history books, science fiction, mysteries, "classic" novels, and miscellaneous. It gets a little ridiculous.
B A G C A
1. A - but before that I got most of books from the library, and now I use the Overdrive app to get e-books from the library. (btw, I learned last week that 76% of Amazon's sabood sales were for the Kindle.)
2. C - and along with the excellent Potter and Ender's Game books (which I read as an adult) I also recommend Writer's Digest award winner "Shadow of the Reapers" by the estimable Mariah Gray, available on all electronic platforms.
3. A-E, but especially G.
4. C
5. B
