(It didn't ...I finally was able to do the quiz! (It didn't seem to work out when I tried before).<br /><br />As I suspected, I got 38 points, so, no surprise at all, I'm most like QUINN. And here's my description:<br /><br />34-42 points: High Achiever You're ambitious and driven to work hard to achieve your goals. But you're not all work and no play! You love spending time with your friends, whether you're heading out to a party or just staying in for a low-key girls' night. You're trustworthy and reliable, and your family and friends have come to depend on your wise judgment. You're the type to sacrifice your own wants for the greater good, but don't forget to do something for yourself once in a while. With your capabilities, there's nothing in your professional or personal life that you can’t achieve. A brilliant future is ahead of you.<br /><br />You are most like Quinn Avery, the eldest of the Avery girls. Quinn's always been on the straight and narrow, but her family's financial crisis threatens to push her off into uncharted territory. Saving money means no more piano lessons...and no more gorgeous piano teacher. Losing him hurts more than anything, and Quinn's willing to do just about anything to keep him in her life. <br /><br />I think it's basically right about everything. Except that I'm an only child and she's the eldest, but anyway.<br /><br />Love,<br />Laura (Spain).Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09363171128180454303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2482047916712681931.post-86303791798073852822010-07-07T18:31:28.925-07:002010-07-07T18:31:28.925-07:00Thanks so much for blogging about my review, and i...Thanks so much for blogging about my review, and it was great to meet you at BEA! <br /> <br />I'm also wondering what you thought of my timeline comment. It didn't really affect my reading that much because it's focused on Quinn and not the other two sisters. So I wasn't looking for where the other two books fit in and what scenes, if any, overlapped or whatever. But you put in clues that referred back to the other books so that helped to place me in the right time frame. I guess it was more confusing for me because I had it in my head that it was over the same time period and then to find that it wasn't was a bit jarring to me. <br /> <br />I think I'm just making it worse, lol. I'll shut up now.BookChichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03641362399541764523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2482047916712681931.post-59491045942178182592010-07-06T15:55:33.295-07:002010-07-06T15:55:33.295-07:00Some of us posted in the entry called "Avery ...Some of us posted in the entry called "Avery Girl Quiz" but I'm reposting Just in Case (and I WAS originally going to make a pun out of that but thought better of it last minute :)<br /><br />"Tres interesting! I got a score of 25 which, apparently makes me:<br /><br />'Rebel Without a Cause. You're independent and have a restless spirit that keeps you on the move. You speak your mind, you're a great friend, and you're loyal to your friends and family. You feel things deeply, which can make you a little vulnerable so you have a tendency to put up a wall between yourself and others to keep from getting hurt. You have incredible style and are fearless when it comes to changing up your look or making a bold fashion statement. You're coming into your own and, without even realizing it, you radiate confidence: That makes you truly gorgeous. <br /><br />You are most like Allison Avery, the middle sister. Tired of being the 'interesting-looking' sister, Allison sells her cell phone to the devil in exchange for beauty. Suddenly, her crush is pining for her, she's chosen as finalist in a teen modeling contest, and she has a new best friend. Does everyone want her for who she is or for how she looks?'<br /><br />Although I never thought of myself as the type of gal who had friends who lurved her looks, it makes me laugh at how accurately pinned the explanation of "me" is. Or, at least, how accurate I think it is. lol! That was one of the funnest quiz I've taken! I've got to get on the Avery girl bandwagon. <br /><br />Can't wait for you to reveal your Avery-girlness!<br /><br />~Scilla Fredericks" <br /><br />That was a pretty amazing review! But I have to ask, do authors find it a bit perturbing when people make comments like "I found the timeline confusing" or is that just us amateur authors who work really hard to make everything as reader friendly as possible without giving up our own vision? Hahahaha! Thanks for the Happy Independence Day! I'm glad you had a good one; a lot of us did too!Priscilla Frederickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11805607993658711645noreply@blogger.com
