What Color Reader Are You?

I took this short quiz for fun earlier today at readyourcolor.com! It goes more in depth with book recommendations, and shows your other reading color percentages as well! What color did you get? 😄

... Read moreSo, when I took that 'What Color Reader Are You?' quiz at readyourcolor.com, finding out I was a 'Purple Reader' totally clicked for me! It’s such a cool concept, and it really helped me understand my unique reading preferences. If you're diving into the world of 'read your color purple', you're in for a treat because it's more than just a label – it's a reflection of your literary soul. The quiz described Purple Readers as 'Unbound Innovators,' and honestly, that feels spot on. We're the ones who dive headfirst into books that aren't afraid to shake things up. If you're constantly seeking intellectual awakening through your stories, pushing boundaries, and finding beauty in the unconventional, you might just be a fellow purple reader! This purple reader type is all about challenging the status quo and embracing narratives that offer fresh perspectives. What does that really mean for our book choices? Well, according to the breakdown, we gravitate towards books that are wild, genre-defying, and challenge the status quo. We're not just looking for a good story; we're looking for a new perspective, something that makes us think deeply and see the world differently. We love narratives that blend genres, experiment with structure, or introduce truly unique concepts. This means the kind of books you read are likely to be unexpected and thought-provoking. If you're wondering what kind of books fit the 'purple reader' bill, think outside the box. Forget predictable plots; we crave the unexpected. I've found myself drawn to things like experimental fiction, philosophical sci-fi that questions reality, or even historical fiction that unearths untold stories from a radically different viewpoint. For fellow 'Unbound Innovators,' I'd highly recommend exploring authors who aren't afraid to break conventions. Think magical realism that blurs the lines of reality, or speculative fiction that explores complex societal issues in imaginative ways. We thrive on stories that don't neatly fit into a single category. Maybe something with a non-linear narrative, or a book that focuses heavily on philosophical introspection. I've personally enjoyed books that blend poetry with prose, or those that tackle taboo subjects with raw honesty. These are the kinds of purple reader book recommendations that truly resonate. Don't be afraid to pick up a book that feels a little 'weird' or challenging. Those are often the ones that truly resonate with our 'purple reader' spirit. We're looking for books that spark conversations, challenge our preconceived notions, and leave a lasting impression long after the last page is turned. If you're one of the many purple readers out there, you're probably already scouting for those hidden gems that push literary boundaries. So, if any of this sounds like you, then welcome to the club of purple readers! It's so cool to connect with others who share this love for eclectic and thought-provoking literature. What are some of your favorite 'unconventional' reads that you think a fellow purple reader would adore? I'm always looking for new purple reader books to add to my ever-growing list!
