Hey no trouble, glad it sounds like something you're interested in! :D
Just a quick word on my potentially misleading use of the word "volume" - in comics they use increase the volume number when they start renumbering the comic, which can be for a bunch of reasons not limited to increasing sales, shifting the style, changing the lead character, internal reality shifts in the universe, etc. It gets confusing since sometimes any of the above can happen and they DON'T renumber too. But the point is, with really long-running comics like Wonder Woman, you get volumes that literally last for decades. Wonder Woman Volume 1 lasted from the 40s to the 80s. Wonder Woman Volume 2 lasted from the late-80s to the mid-2000s; they both have hundreds of issues and many graphic novels. Going to the comic store and asking for Wonder Woman Volume 2 is asking for two decades worth of comic!
So, what might help, is a list of the names of the graphic novels the single comics were collected into:
Simone's graphic novels, in order, are titled (with "Wonder Woman:" preceding them), The Circle, Ends of the Earth, Rise of the Olympian, Warkiller and Contagion. Greg Rucka's are called, Down to Earth, Bitter Rivals, Eyes of the Gorgon, Land of the Dead, Superman: Sacrifice (the OMAC Project) (Yes, that's a Superman book, but it's a crossover with Wonder Woman and includes #219 of her comic and is SUPER important for the run, like it has a PIVOTAL moment in it - though there's a really good recap at the start of the Wonder Woman comic in question, you could probably just read that) and Mission's End.
All of Simone's run (Wonder Woman Vol #3 #14 - 44) is also available for digital purchase at comixology.com.
