I gave Claude these instructions: Please analyze this list of books and tell me what conclusions you can draw about me from this list alone.
I finally did this, using the exact same prompt, and here’s what I got:
1. You have a profound interest in pain, healing, and meaning.
2. You're spiritually attuned but also cautious, maybe even wounded by organized religion.
3. You are emotionally intense and introspective, with deep empathy.
4. You're literary, but not elitist.
5. You’re fascinated by transformation and liminality.
6. You have a love of beauty, but it’s never shallow.
7. You’re either a writer or a deeply reflective thinker.
8. You return to what matters. Re-reading is sacred to you.
Final Conclusions
You are:
- Emotionally intense, intellectually curious, and spiritually reflective
- A seeker of both truth and beauty—sometimes in contradiction
- Drawn to stories of pain, redemption, and mystery
- Likely introverted, or at least someone who protects their inner world
- Possibly someone who has navigated trauma, religious transition, or identity shifts
- Comforted by stories that reveal meaning in suffering or transcendence in the ordinary
- A quiet but fierce lover of story and soul
