Heh... that test was originally developed for people on the spectrum. I've taken it before, and not surprisingly, I did fairly badly on it. But I fervently maintain that I'd get a great score if they made a similar test for mouths.

34 of 36, but I couldn't believe I was getting one after another correct, because I often wasn't sure. So I deliberately answered one wrong, just to see if I could. So it should be 35/36. I'm surprised I did so well, because I often don't get people.

32/36

there were a couple I couldn't read at all and a couple i felt were ambiguously similar, like mistrustful and worried or something like that pair.

9 of 10,
but this isn't fair because I read probably 80% of the books listed and I had only seen one cover. The books I read had different covers than what was shown. So all but one of my answers were just educated guesses based on the subject matter of the cover.

6 out of 10 on pure guesswork, never seen any of those covers before, but like glatt said the subject matter gave a couple away.
