| What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The Northeast
Judging by how you talk you are probably from north Jersey, New York City, Connecticut or Rhode Island. Chances are, if you are from New York City (and not those other places) people would probably be able to tell if they actually heard you speak.

What Kind of Reader Are You?
Your Result: Obsessive-Compulsive Bookworm
You’re probably in the final stages of a Ph.D. or otherwise finding a way to make your living out of reading. You are one of the literati. Other people’s grammatical mistakes make you insane.
I guess I got the nerdy end of the bookmark.

OK, so I’m apparently a book snob. I think that one missed the mark a little. I’m a total snob!
But the “What American Accent Do You Have?” one was dead on!
What American accent do you have?
Your Result: Philadelphia
Your accent is as Philadelphian as a cheesesteak! If you’re not from Philadelphia, then you’re from someplace near there like south Jersey, Baltimore, or Wilmington. if you’ve ever journeyed to some far off place where people don’t know that Philly has an accent, someone may have thought you talked a little weird even though they didn’t have a clue what accent it was they heard.
Dang!!!!!!
I’m originally from a little town about 30 miles west south west of Philly. That’s scary!

My result — Inland North, somewhere in the vicinity of the Windy City… which is kind of funny since I’ve never been there once in my life!
