Merp Squad Week: Jessi (Auntie Spinelli Reads)



Nikki: Talk about how you started getting involved in our Merp Squad Talks--if you can even remember.
Jessi: OH MY GOSH. I honestly have no clue! I have the most horrible memory, as you probably already know.

N: Who's a Merp Squadder you haven't talked to in a while and really really need to?
J: Eileen, she's been so quiet lately!
N: Who would you like to strangle hug the most?
J: Inky! She's my Nator Twinsies :)

N: If you could give a nickname (that has nothing to do with their NAME) to all the Merp Squadders, what would they be?
J: Nothing to do with their name? Goodness...
WELL Inky is already Nator Twin and I have dubbed Nikki as Master Loopholer. Eileen should be Bubbles because she's bubbly (so original, I know) and Annabelle can be...ummm....Twinkles? Lol I have no idea. I obviously suck at nicknames >.>

N: Favorite thing of each Merp Squadder's blog?
J: That they're all unique to each Merpers' personality! 

N: TYPICAL QUESTION: What made you start blogging and how is it different from what you expected?
J: I stumbled on another blog while looking for pictures of books, and since I was already thinking of doing a small review/summary of my own for the books I read, I thought, 'I could totally do this!'

N: What is the BEST thing about blogging?
J: Besides the reading? The people!

N: How did you do/choose your design?
J: I like something simple and easy on the eyes, and I'm a huge fan of sea themes.

N: Your Top 5 books of 2013 are...
J: So far:
1) Unravel Me by Tahereh Mafi
2) Blood Red Road by Moira Young (I listened to the audio!)
3) The 5th Wave by Rick Yancey
4) City of a Thousand Dolls by Miriam Forster (JERRIT)
5) The Rules by Stacey Kade

N: WHAT IS A QUESTION YOU'VE NEVER BEEN ASKED BUT WOULD LOVE TO ANSWER. And answer it. (STOLEN FROM EILEEN.)
J: Oh lord. Um...um...IF YOU COULD BE ANY CHARACTER ON FINDING NEMO, WHO WOULD YOU BE?! And the answer is most definitely Dory. I would be Dory.


N: What is everything you know about Nikki? (MEEEE)
J: What do I know about Nikki? She's small and Asian and adorable and really shy on camera but so NOT shy on twitter...tweets like a maniac and is not afraid to talk to authors (give me some of that courage, woman!) and LOVES to fangirl! She's fabulous at brainstorming new ideas and is a great motivator for lazy people like me. She's pretty freaking awesome and I don't know what I'd do without her epic spunkiness in my life ;D

N: Why Geo?

J: Well it's short for Geobob Spinelli...it's a bit of an silly inside joke that stemmed from a total verbal misunderstanding, lmao. It kind of stuck and Geo has been my nickname ever since!

  2. Fantastic interview, you two! Bahaha Twinkles that is actually such an amazing nickname I am so tempted to call Annabelle that from now on...>.>

    DUDE I love your design, and I agree with all of those books, they were all awesome/I've heard amazing things about them and I really really need to read them soon, especially The 5th Wave!

Welcome all! I'd love to hear what you think, even if they're lies saying that my reviews are fantastic. I take flattery in all forms ;D
