1. She has opinions on everything because she actually knows about it.
"Do you even know where Uggs come from?"
2. She has heroines that are probably better than yours.
Come on. We've got everyone on the scale from Queen Elizabeth to Hermione to Jo March.

3. She is always armed with her knowledge.
And let's be real, knowledge fuels the pen, which is totally mightier than the sword.
4. She has life advice for anything you could possibly be going through.
Because she's already read about how it ends.
5. She is passionate.
Chances are if she's a reader, she gets super caught up in books and cries when her favorite character dies and stays up all night reading because her heart is in the book and she just can't put it down. If she reads, her heart is strong.
6. If she enjoys books, you know she reads online as well.
Reddit. Huffington Post. Tumblr. Freaking CNN. You name it, she reads it.
7. She can insult your enemies in ways that are so subtle, they won't even realize it until she's already won.
Have you read any Shakespeare? That dude absolutely slayed the scene for backhanded compliments.
8. She is a hopeless romantic.
Girls eat that shit up. She will love to get lost in a real life love story and it will be one for the history books. (Classic pun)
9. Best date ever: Book Store
There is something to be appreciated about a girl who you can spend time sharing imaginary worlds with.
10. She can recommend things for you to read until the sun comes up.
Be careful though. Once she starts talking about how great a book is, it might never stop. Be gentle with her.
11. She gets (and even laughs at) your nerdy jokes.
Even if she doesn't get it, she'll understand it before you can finish explaining it.
12. She's smart.
How is it even possible that she's not??
13. She values silence.
Girls love to talk. But if you find one that is happy in silence for hours, nose-deep in a book, then you keep that. Or friend her as hard as you can.
14. Her random bits of weird facts are the bomb.
"Did you know...?" is the best way to start a sentence. You will be smarter just hanging out with this girl.
15. Glasses.
Not like fake hipster glasses with no lenses. She wears real glasses to improve her sight and she looks so good in them.
16. Her childhood is full of adventures and duels and epic tales.
She will tell you every detail about how her treehouse was actually a time machine, or how she and her friends spent weeks solving mystery cases for the government, or how she and all the other Greek Gods and Goddesses threw a huge party, but they all got taken captive.
17. She is a combination of all her favorite characters, which is badass.
She loves like Juliet, fights like Katniss, stands brave like Hester, is beautiful like Andromeda and strong like Khaleesi. BAD. ASS.
18. Most important: She has a vivid, massive, exquisite imagination.
She can imagine whole worlds that don't exist. She can fall in love with fictional characters. Her capabilities are endless.
Never underestimate an intelligent woman.
