Sunday Book Quiz #2

Happy Sunday guys! Many of you told me how much they liked the book quiz I posted in April (you can find it here). So I decided to do a new quiz for you. Many hours of looking up quotes, searching for pictures and writing them down were spent on this post, quite work-intensive I tell you. So I probably won't be able to do these kinds of quiz posts very often. But I want to try to do one every few months or so. 
5 different categories, 12 questions. Try to get the right answers and share in the comments. I've linked to the books for those who don't want to wait for the answers. Hope you enjoy it!

Sunday Book Quiz

Happy Sunday. You've probably moved over to the couch with a new book, some tea and cookies. I have to admit I spent the day in my PJs reading Maureen Johnson's THE NAME OF THE STAR (it's really good). To give you a break from reading - I know, who would want that?! -  I've thrown together a small quiz - of course book related - for you guys. 5 different categories, 12 questions. Try to get the right answers and share in the comments. I've linked to the books for those who don't want to wait for the answers. Hope you enjoy it!
