Hi Anna! Welcome! We have a lot in common. 8-) I love Mint Green too and Sushi and would love to visit China and Japan. I have a passion for the Chinese culture and all things Chinese. Also I have a wiener dog named Pippin! I love the name of yours. How old is he and what color? Pippin is 8 and is a chocolate dapple.

message 1557: by BarbaraAnn (new)

BarbaraAnn Hi,

Thanks for the template! It's always hard to know what to say:

Birthday: 3/19
Favorite Book(s): I could never pick just one. So far my favorite book read in 2016 is Magic Shifts
Favorite Book Genre: Mystery, Romance, Thriller, Historical, Paranormal - favorite books typically combine at least two of of these genres.
Favorite Author: I'll say Ilona Andrews because so far I haven't read anything of hers that I would rate below 4
Favorite Color: Green
Favorite Food: Food
Any Pets: Not yet but plan to add to my house this year
If I could live anywhere in the world it would be: Australia
Finish the line: I know I'm a book addict because.... I have enough books in my TBR list to carry me easily through the next 200 - 300 years


message 1558: by Artie (new)

Artie (artabra) | 212 comments I love the template. I can never figure out what to say in an introduction.

Birthday: September 21

Favorite Book(s): Lord of the Rings. Plus all the other books set in Middle-Earth. I like to blame Tolkien for my obsession with elves.

Favorite Book Genre: I love Fantasy in general, but I also like Urban Fantasy and Paranormal Romance. Thanks to Google, I've also recently figured out that a kind of stories I like actually have a genre: Portal Fantasy (Character from World A ends in World B).

Favorite Author: See, here's where I'm torn. I love Tolkien, but since I started to read Discworld a few years ago I've started to also like Terry Pratchett.

Favorite Color: Blue.

Favorite Food: Do desserts count? If so, it's freixós.

Any Pets: A cat that loves to ignore me and hisses at strangers before running away to hide.

If I could live anywhere in the world it would be: I'm where I want to be, :)

Finish the line: I know I'm a book addict because... I'm starting to run out of space for books. Thank God for my Kindle.


message 1559: by [deleted user] (new)

Birthday: August 3
Favorite Book(s): The Book Thief was a life-changer for me when I first read it. And then I guess that my favorite series would be the Throne of Glass Series by Sarah J. Maas. The first book was the best, but while going on the quality started steadily declining, but it's still a great read!

Favorite Book Genre: Anything that's fiction, but if I were to go a little bit more specific than that, historical fiction is my favorite of all time. I fantasize and daydream or time traveling back in history (kind of unusual for a teenager) and my books give me into an escape.

Favorite Author: A brilliant writer that can leave and let lightning from a bottle is Steig Larsson. He can really make your head explode, and he makes morning routines even sound interesting.

Favorite Color: Aruba teal, my whole room is painted this color and I adore and obsess over it.

Favorite Food: Grapefruit. Awesome source of Vitamin C and also I could eat three of these everyday for the rest of my life. I'm really dedicated man ;)

Any Pets: Just something like 40 or so fish. So casual, their all my dad's
If I could live anywhere in the world it would be: Near the ocean. Anywhere in the world that near a beautiful beach.
Finish the line: I know I'm a book addict because... I usually don't get a good night's sleep if I start on one that's a page turner. No sleep for me today...

Ginny (heyitsginny) | 10 comments Birthday: August 23rd

Favorite Book(s): This is a super difficult question for me right now since my reading tastes have drastically shifted recently, but here are a few books I really loved: Jane Eyre, the Harry Potter series, Into the Wild, and The Truth About Forever.

Favorite Book Genre: I've mostly read YA contemporary and fantasy, but lately I've really been getting into adult thriller and literary fiction!

Favorite Author: I don't have a favorite author currently, but I really like Jon Krakauer and Gillian Flinn. In the past, my favorites were John Green and Sarah Dessen, both of whom I still really like, but I wouldn't call them my favorites anymore.

Favorite Color: Greeeeeen (:

Something about me: I'm 42, married and have a son (Yannick = 10) and a daughter (Annika = 7). We live in the east of the Netherlands, close to the German border, in Nijmegen (the oldest city in the country - a few years ago we celebrated its 2000th birthday!).

Favorite Author: Isabel Allende, J.K. Rowling/Robert Galbraith, Ken Follett, Rebecca Gable, Joanne Harris, ...

Rachel C (rachcl) | 53 comments Hi Everyone

My name is Rachel, and I joined NBRC a long time ago, but never had the time (and stamina) to sit and try to figure out all these challenges and rules.
I joined because it's sound really fun to do all challenges, meet new people, (practice my english), and get out a little of my confort zone by reading new genres or breaking trough a realy "meh" book in order to complete a challenge :D (but lack of time and laziness kept me out of here)
All this changed when I recived the wobble's newsletter and I decided to figure out how things here worked.
I signed up for Wobble the same day, and in the next, I discovered the RPG and it sounded amazing!
Now I'm here, introducing myself and really excited to be part NBRC :D
I'm Brazilian, I was born on a city called Natal (It means "Christmas" in portuguese), but now I live in São Paulo (:
Nice to meet you all!

Birthday: January 3rd
Favorite Books: Persuasion, Ancillary Justice, Guards! Guards! and Carry On (to cover all my fav genres)
Favorite Book Genre: Sci Fi is my ultimate Fav, but I really like Classical Romance, Humor and some Fantasy too
Favorite Author/s: Rainbow Rowell, Jane Austen, Ann Leckie, Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett
Favorite Color: Turquoise
Favorite Food/s: Brigadeiro (A Brazilian chocolate ball), Chocolate and Seafood in general (Paella is love)
Any pets: Just Jake (the dog)
If I could live anywhere in the world it would be: I don't know. I think all Canada looks pretty nice, and sweden seems incredible. I know chile is beautiful and a really nice country too.
Finish the Line: I know I'm a book addict because...I'm always the person who reads the most in all my friends circle.
