A disappointing 17 out of 25. I will now write " I must pay more attention to my reading" 100 times.

A gold star for you Glynis - sit at the front of the class

Technically still a pass sparky and if it makes you feel any better; doctors only have to get 50% to qualify - frightening or what

Hasn't it been a while since you both finished the book? So the details won't be fresh in your mind. I did the quiz the same evening as finishing the book!

Maybe it's a reflection on how much you enjoyed/disliked the book Sparky. Didn't you say you skimmed over a lot of the book?

22 out of 25 but I only finished it a couple of days ago, if I had waited a while to do the quiz it would have been less.

22 as well, Blueflower although I only finished it a few days ago too. The questions were very detailed, I'm glad I was paying attention while reading the novel!

I got 22 which I'd say was good for me considering I read it ages ago

Most were a guess
