Got 9/10 correct...

Here is another quiz: http://encarta.msn.com/quiz_61/Famou...ovel_Quiz.html


I got 10/13 this time :-/ Should read more 'modern books'...

Got 8/10 correct

Gee.......9 of 10 correct.......got #10 wrong (been a few decades since I read it)...

8/10, I impressed myself...

7/10, don't expect anyone will score less than that.

kilted, we tied. ;)
plus, i read the secret garden (well, decades ago) and got it wrong!

A few very lucky (and a couple unlucky) guesses got me 8/10. :) I think I actually KNEW the answer to five...

So you must have read 30 at your worst possible luck and ten at your best possible luck to certainly score ten.
