Apparently, I'm a purple reader. #BookSky www.readyourcolor.com/take-the-ass...
Description of a purple reader, "the 'unbound innovator' - a bold, unconventional thinker who thrives on experimental storytelling and genre-defying narratives. They read to challenge norms, stretch their imagination, and fuel radical creativity. After finishing a book, they want to feel intellectually awakened and creatively invigorated, as if they've glimpsed a new way of seeing the world." Image says, "The kind of books you read are wild, unconventional, and impossible to categorize. You're drawn to stories that break rules - narratives that twist form, blur genres, or leap through time and space without warning. Traditional plot arcs don't impress you nearly as much as originality, voice, and sheer creative risk. You love authors who challenge assumptions, upend expectations, and invite you into strange and brilliant new worlds. Whether it's fiction that feels like a fever dream or nonfiction that dares to imagine entirely new futures, you create ideas that crack open your thinking. Your bookshelf isn't safe - it's a playground for the wildly inventive and beautifully bizarre." Fiction preferences of purple readers include experimental and postmodern novels; surreal or dreamlike fables; books with nonlinear structures or shifting perspectives; genre mashups and speculative fiction with a philosophical edge; literary fiction that breaks form or plays with language. Nonfiction preferences of purple readers include avant-garde essays and unconventional memoirs; speculative cultural criticism; futurist manifestos and radical theory; philosophy or psychology that explores abstract or fringe ideas; books on creativity, innovation and alternative ways of thinking.
