**Day 2 Questions**


1: What book(s) have you started and/or finished for the RaT, and what do you think of them so far?
I started Written in Fire & Beneath the Waves last night. Written in Fire started off with a bang and is as enjoyable as the last one (so far). Beneath SUCKS and will likely be a DNF for me at 10%. I'm going to TRY to read a bit more (up to the 10%) but I knew on the first page I wouldn't like it and my instincts are rarely wrong about books. I know right away if I will like something or not, and I don't with that one!

2: Will WOBBLE be your first team challenge, if not how many have you done before? What have been your favorites?
This will be my 7th Team Challenge at NBRC, and I've done 2 at another group. I've done multiple Tower Teams & Wheel-a-Thons, as well as Battleship and UnCover It. My favorite was the first Wheel-a-Thon because my team was AWESOME. We chatted the most of everyone but also read the most and won it. (Yay Astronomers!) We were a great team and had tons and tons of fun! :)

3: What are your hobbies outside of reading?
Video Games. I built my own Gaming PC last year named Widget (after the character from The Night Circus) and he is FANTASTIC!! He plays games better than our PS3 and probably better than a PS4 (if we had one). I'm a puzzle adventure player (Portal, Talos Principle) but love most adventure (Batman, Resident Evil (4), GTA, Skyrim) and much more. I use Widget for day to day stuff too (like now) which is good otherwise he'd be so ignored during Wobble.

4: Tell us FOUR more fun random facts about you!
~ I built a Gaming PC in Feb 2015. :) Ok, that's a bit of a cheater, so more info on that. I started researching PCs in November of 2014 and soon became obsessed. I know a little of computers but hadn't tinkered on that scale before. I read everything I needed to know about building one for MONTHS. I was obsessed and loved it, and then when we got tax money in, my Hubby bought me all the parts. I put it together so easily and turning it on for the first time was such joy. Consoles are generic, everyone has it. Widget came from MY hands and works because I pieced him together. I adore him!

~ I LOVE Theme Parks and Amusement Parks. Naming a favorite ride/coaster is much harder than a book. There's so much to consider. When asked, I have to fall back to giving my favorite attraction by park, especially when it comes to WDW (MK: Splash; Epcot: none now, Test Track if I HAD to pick, Horizons formerly; MGM: Tower (it'll always be MGM to me); AK: Dinosaur). Or by types of coaster when it comes to coasters, though if I HAVE to pick one, it'd be Desperado in Primm NV outside of Vegas.

~ Vegas is my favorite place in the world. If we had money, we'd definitely move out there. It's been over 9 years since I last went (our honeymoon in '07) so I miss it so much. I've been there 7 times total and I wish we could afford to go back someday.

~ I LOVE playing with my Photoshop. I love tinkering with images and I used to do a ton of digital scrapbooking. I haven't had anything to take photos of for years so my Photoshop sat untouched. I love that with NBRC I've been able to dust it off again and play around with all kinds of images/graphics (I've done everything for Wobble). It's so much fun and I can waste hours on Photoshop.

[Kristie]

1: What book(s) have you started and/or finished for the RaT, and what do you think of them so far?
I started Stars Above and made it to page 121. The first three short stories were really good. I think the first one, you sort of knew the story already from reading the other books, but there was a little more detail. The next two were better. It was interesting to see the back stories to some of the characters.

I also made it through a bit more of Tell the Wolves I'm Home. I am enjoying this one more now that I'm in the second half of the book and some of my questions are starting to be answered. I wasn't loving in the beginning, but I'm really engaged in the story now.

2: Will WOBBLE be your first team challenge, if not how many have you done before? What have been your favorites?
No, I have done tower teams before and a few other group challenges, some in other groups as well. I'm currently playing UNO. I'm not sure which is my favorite.

3: What are your hobbies outside of reading?
I used to love volleyball, but hurt my ankle several months ago and can't play anymore. I enjoy watching movies, even though I don't watch any TV. I like yoga and swimming. I enjoy puzzles though I never seem to have time to do them. I enjoy kayaking, white water rafting, zip lining, and most outdoor adventures. I think one of my favorites is river kayaking. It is so fun.

4: Tell us FOUR more fun random facts about you!
1. I have a cat and a dog. I recently realized that I have far too many pictures of them on my phone, particularly of them sleeping in strange positions, which I find really funny for some reason.

2. I went to see Olympic volleyball when the Olympics were held in London. It was a lot of fun. I hope to some day see Olympic gymnastics and ice skating too.

3. My degree is in psychological services. My most recent job was working with children that have been removed from their homes for various reasons. I did individual, group, and family therapy with them in an effort to help them either reunite with their families or to move on to a new placement or adoption. It can be a really stressful career, but I really enjoy it.

4. I just moved to Virginia last fall. My husband and I grew tired of the winters in Massachusetts and basically just moved a bit south for milder seasons. We both really dislike the cold and the amount of snow we had been getting was overwhelming.

My husband and I went to Vegas once and loved it. He has to go out there for business next month and I am going to tag along. I can't wait! :) I've only been there that once.

[Drishti]

1: What book(s) have you started and/or finished for the RaT, and what do you think of them so far?
- 75% through this one
Seriously, I don't even understand why I'm reading this book. Even though I went into it with no expectations at all, I'm still disappointed. (Wait, am I even making sense?)
- 57% through it
I'm enjoying this book a lot, even though this book doesn't live up to the standard of the other Rainbow Rowell books I have read. What I like is the real and flawed nature of the characters.

2: Will WOBBLE be your first team challenge, if not how many have you done before? What have been your favorites?
No, WOBBLE certainly isn't my first team challenge. Actuallly, my first one was TT4. If I remember correctly, I have done six others so far, one of them being Around the World challenge in this group. I have liked all, but, not enough to have any favorites. :)

3: What are your hobbies outside of reading?
Surprisingly, I don't have many other hobbies outside of reading. I have tried a lot of things, but, nothing stuck with me (except reading, of course!). But, if I have to name something, I would say chess. I have been playing chess for as long as I can remember. Yes, even as a toddler. Unfortunately, no one I know shares this interest.

4: Tell us FOUR more fun random facts about you!
a. Whenever I'm not reading, I'm watching movies.
b. I want to learn a new language this summer and I have decided that it's gonna be French.
c. I'm a proffesional when it comes to procrastinating. In fact, I'm doing that right now by answering these questions just to put off studying. :p
d. I want to learn how to code. And yes, I am going to turn it into reality. Probably right after I learn French.

**Day 2 Questions**
1: What book(s) have you started and/or finished for the RaT, and what do you think of them so far?
Finished Wet Heat- it was okay, lot of potential, but not explored.
Listened to an hour of Touch of Frost - not sure how I feel about it. Is not that I don't like the narrator, but maybe I need to try the written version.

2: Will WOBBLE be your first team challenge, if not how many have you done before? What have been your favorites?
I've done all of NBRC's except Uncover It! - the mods had to stay on the background. I like them all, but Wheelathon and any goal driven one are my favs.

3: What are your hobbies outside of reading?
Sleeping!
Kidding. I like to knit, hike and play games. Also, anything that involves being curled on the couch.

4: Tell us FOUR more fun random facts about you!

Day 2

**Day 2 Questions**
1: What book(s) have you started and/or finished for the RaT, and what do you think of them so far?
I'm finishing up A Gathering of Shadowsright now because I've been taking forever to read it. It's great, so far, I've just been slacking. Another reason I'm looking forward to WOBBLE! Just the kick in the butt I need.

2: Will WOBBLE be your first team challenge, if not how many have you done before? What have been your favorites?
Nope, though it will certainly be the most involved one! I participated in the last Tower Teams and it was an absolute blast :)

3: What are your hobbies outside of reading?
I like playing video games though I have a terrible attention span for them. I would say TV, but I honestly only pay attention to two shows; Game of Thrones and The Walking Dead. I love musicals and singing and can be found doing that throughout the day, especially while driving. I like being outdoors when the sun is out, which hasn't been all that often here in Ohio lately. I love to travel, though I don't get to do it as often as I'd like to go. New places always get me excited!

4: Tell us FOUR more fun random facts about you!
- I used to be a single mom and am now taking up the mantle again as my husband is deployed to Korea. It's much more difficult with two children, but it's surprising how easily I slipped back into that role!
- I'm a medical laboratory scientist/technologist which is an awesome job that not a lot of people know exists. I love it!
- I have a B.S. in Agriculture. My major was Animal Sciences and I loved every second of it. Not doing much with it now (though it did allow me to test for the next level up in my certification) but I'm proud to have it.
- I grew up in the military. I've lived in California, Florida, Arizona, and Germany. My dad retired in Ohio, my current residence, but I married a military man and we'll be moving to New Mexico soon. I'm pretty stoked :)

I finished The Problem with Forever last night and while I enjoyed it, it didn't wow me the way I hoped it would. I'm most of the way through The Crown now which is the last in the Selection series.

I think Wobble will be the fifth or sixth team challenge I've taken part in. My favourites have been Uno and Gladiator Games.

Fact #4 I will be maid of honor for the first time evvvvvver on July 9th but! it's a secret wedding that's super private so I can't actually tell anyone I'm the MoH until Septemeber, when they announce they're reception and nuptials. It's all confusing and I'm sooo flippin excited to be a part of it. I figure what's said in the book club stays in the book club, right. ;)

[Anita Reads]

1: What book(s) have you started and/or finished for the RaT, and what do you think of them so far?
This is turning out to be a bad read-a-thon for me. I cannot seem to stick with one book for more than an hour at a time (at most). I have listened to a few hours of Cruel Beauty so I'm a little more than half-way, and it equal about 73 pages. Then I've read about 35 pages in Legacy of the Clockwork Key I'm actually enjoying it. It's very interesting, but I think because I still have 200 pages left I'm thinking with my speed these days I won't even finish 1 book during this RaT. So obviously I started an almost 400 pages book which makes sense right? Which is The Mane Event. Here I read about 40 pages. Then I read 12 pages of Rivers of London This is such a slow read for me. I mean the magic system is interesting, but I never seem to get anywhere with the book. So yeah. Can't seem to focus on one book.

2: Will WOBBLE be your first team challenge, if not how many have you done before? What have been your favorites?
No it's not. I've joined so many different ones. Both here on NBRC and also in other groups. I really enjoy Wheel-a-thon, so yay about that being a part of Wobble. I also enjoy Bingo or other type of board games made into challenges.

3: What are your hobbies outside of reading?
Probably watching sports. I don't know if you can call that a hobby though, but I watch sports every day. That has also been a very distracting factor today, as there was an important handball semi final today I had to watch.

4: Tell us FOUR more fun random facts about you!
1. I just read the first Graphic novel since being a kid the other day.
2. I'm going to Manchester in June over a weekend.
3. My favorite movie is Back To the Future.
4. I'm not good with big crowds. Like when going shopping when there's a sale or something. I hate that people don't walk the same pace as me. I get so impatient.

**Day 2 Questions**

1: What book(s) have you started and/or finished for the RaT, and what do you think of them so far?
I just started Held and so far, I am really enjoying it. The story seemed to be pretty straightforward from the synopsis, but it is FAR from "normal" for a kidnapping story. I've already added the subsequent books to my Wish List on Amazon.

2: Will WOBBLE be your first team challenge, if not how many have you done before? What have been your favorites?
The only other team challenge I did was the Tower Teams and I really enjoyed that. I love having a structure to choosing which books I am going to read. Also, finishing a book that meets a goal makes me feel awesome!

3: What are your hobbies outside of reading?
I am an internet addict. I don't have a job due to the fact that I am staying home to help take care of my mom, so I use online survey sites to help make extra money. I'm on a lot of them, so if anyone wants to try any of them, send me a PM! And be sure to use my referral link if you sign up ;)

I didn't do very well the first time! LOL

- I love to try new recipes and the fact that I am also a Pintrest addict helps that a lot!

Day Two Questions
1) What books have you started/finished for the RaT and what do you think of them so far?
I finished The Mamo Murders this morning. I loved the twisted tale of suspense and superstition set in old Hawaii. The Rue Morgue Press has resurrected all the great old mysteries and they're fabulous! I started Vaclav and Lena for another challenge. I'm liking it so far. I also started In the Shadow of the Banyan which is about Cambodia. I'm mesmerized so far! The language is so lyrical!

No, it's not my first rodeo, although I've only become active this year. I really enjoy all forms of BINGO. Around the World was my first challenge. I was lucky to have a great team -- very helpful and chatty & fun! I liked it so much, I decided to do a 2nd round. Some players stayed, some left, but it's great to meet new friends!

1: What book(s) have you started and/or finished for the RaT, and what do you think of them so far? I have so far finished half of a book Nuts (Hudson Valley #1) by Alice Clayton, and I really enjoyed it! It was really funny and sexy! I Started Witch World (Witch World #1) by Christopher Pike and I am currently almost finished, I love how detailed the author gets with the background facts, makes the stories he writes seem more plausible. I also have been reading the novella Alex (Delirium #1.5 by Lauren Oliver It is a great extra bit of information that helps really progress the story and get to know the characters so much more.
2: Will WOBBLE be your first team challenge, if not how many have you done before? What have been your favorites? This is my first team challenge! I am usually too late to join challenges but I have done some Pick It For Me Challenges which at least gets me in the mind set for choosing books for other people. Not sure how much that applies in these situations but I am looking forward to getting more involved.
3: What are your hobbies outside of reading?
I absolutely love watching movies and television and reviewing them as well. I also love to paint with acrylic and draw in black and grey.

**Day 2 Questions**

1: What book(s) have you started and/or finished for the RaT, and what do you think of them so far?
Since I'm doing this at the "end of Day Two," I've managed to start and finish my first book: Broken Soul by Faith Hunter. I really loved it. Chapter 15 was the realization of my hopes and dreams. :-)

2: Will WOBBLE be your first team challenge, if not how many have you done before? What have been your favorites?
I've done just two team challenges before, both here in NBRC. I participated in Tower Teams IV and I'm still participating in Around the World. TTIV has been my favorite so far. :-)

3: What are your hobbies outside of reading?
I don't really do much outside of reading or talking books and stuff here on Goodreads. I play with my puppy. Check Facebook for updates from family and close friends. Do Kakuro puzzles occasionally. And. . .that's pretty much it. I own knitting needles and yarn, cross-stitch projects, coloring books, and other puzzle books, but it's been years since I've done anything with them. (So long, in fact, that I've forgotten how to knit.)

4: Tell us FOUR more fun random facts about you!
1) I cut my hair to just under chin length when I went to Russia for the first time in the summer of 1995. I've been trying to grow it out ever since, but it's been stalled at about butt-length for years.
2) I've been to every state in the union but for two: Hawaii and North Dakota. And my Mom and I are going on a cruise to Hawaii in 2017. :-)
3) When I was a kid (about 10, I think), my parents took our family (just them, me, and my younger brother) on a 10,000 mile around-the-country trip in just two weeks, which is how I got to go to most of the states.
4) My grandfather was navy, my father was a marine, and my brother is army. I have a secret hope that one of my brother's kids will grow up to join the coast guard. ;-)
