AUTHOR RECOGNITION TEST

Take the test:
Put a tick mark next to every author's name you recognize. No cheating.

Grading:
In this version, the tick marks are points. Maximum possible score is 50.

Psychologists studying theory of mind (empathy) developed this list in 1989 to test how well-read subjects were.

I recognize nearly all of these, they're all gutter trash airport fiction. They fucking put Danielle Steel and sugest ingesting her mass produced garbage makes you "well read".
