tbr cluedo picks what i read! 🔎 april tbr - tbr cluedo episode #9

i'm looking for me actually reading the books i put on these tbrs hello everyone and welcome oh my god i'm not holding the board to take the cleaner which way does it go no that way i'll tell you what they do okay i'm feeling weird right now i'm feeling like so weird so if you don't know tbr cluedo is a tbr game that i do every month that picks well it's supposed to pick what i read let's let's talk about that so previous months right last year in 2021 i was great i was so good at always reading what tbr pluto picked but in in 2022 it just hasn't happened it hasn't been also i'm wearing this sack dress that i've owned for many years and i'm not sure how it's gonna show up on camera anyway i from previous previous months i have not read monday's not coming from january the woods are always watching from february and if i'm honest pretty much all of march's tbr just after i filmed tbr for march a couple things happened and then i had to really like move around the videos i had coming this month and so it meant that i just didn't read what i had planning april i'm gonna read more books than anyone else in the world i i feel good you know i've spoken about january february pretty hard months for me personally march has been a good month for me personally and i feel like i'm really starting to like get back to the level of everything that i want and so april i just feel like i'm going to read like 200 books i feel like i'm going to read a lot of books or at least that's the hope the goal by the end of april is to not only read the books on april's tbr but to get caught up on all the other books as well essentially yeah we're here today to do april's tbr which i just also can't believe it's april like well it's not yet technically but like the year is flying by the year is like oh my god like let's be really quick it's i hate it i hate it should we speed it up a little bit yeah let's just get into the rolls for this month if you don't know the rules i will link the playlist down below we can check out the first video that has all the rules that you need to know but essentially there's rooms that correlate to genres there's prompts that correlate to the books i pick let's go okay time for a roll one let's have a really good month first we have number six over here in yellow which is good actually because i will go straight into fantasy because i'm definitely needing to read a lot of fantasy this month okay let's see how many we roll four and a two what can i get two in that one two three four five six which is number 24 which is a book over 400 pages i think i've had this once before and it was fantasy as well but to be fair if it's gonna be any genre fantasy is the best because it always has really long books so as i said i need to read a lot of fantasy this month like a [ __ ] ton of fantasy and the prompt was a fantasy book over 400 pages which is always pretty easy i'd rather be fantasy than like romance or contemporary which is much harder to find but i have picked the dream thieves by maggie steve water this is about 450 pages which you don't think is going to be that long but it's actually quite long i read the raven boys last year i'm pretty sure and i only gave it like a three star i didn't love it but it felt like a prequel to the rest of the series to me so i'm hoping i'm gonna really really love this i know i think this one focuses on ronan more out of the group of the raven boys the thing is with this series there's so much that i could love like when you give me the buzzwords i'm like oh like i'm like oh i should love this but then i just didn't love it magazine was writing also i feel like was a bit you know i had to get used to it i'm excited to make more progress in a series because i need to do that we all know i need to do that we all know that that is that is on the list for this year and i feel like i'm doing quite well so far so anyway i'm gonna oh i hate when i do that i feel like i'm a cat choking so uh so uh yeah i feel like i need to read the rest of this series to fully appreciate it for what everyone else loves it for time for roll two number two which is purple up here in the mystery let's see how many we roll whoa a three and a three okay let's go one two three four five six which is number three which is oh my god start a new series okay so roll two was a mystery let's start in a new series ah let's try to sabotage me i have done so well this year i've only started one series i literally just started it like yesterday before i've only started one series we'll get into that we'll talk about that this year so far and i finished i think about like six or seven maybe i don't know i don't know i finished but anyway it's time to start a new series apparently i will just say that um i i sabotage a lot of things oh in it yeah okay and this month i picked this to be the one that my patrons voted on for our book clubs if you don't know they vote on one of our picks every single month to be the pick for our book club and the options i gave them this month were the wins are not by sj bennett aggie morton mystery cream the body and the piano by marth joslin six stories by matt weszelowski i always i'm worried i'm saying that wrong and how we fall apart by katie zhao and this one pretty much unanimously like everyone wanted to read this this is what i'm reading this month for our book club i think this is following like gossip girl dark academia goes into class goes into race with following like a group of friends it's all like oh i'm very excited i think one of the students and like the group of friends is murdered and then everyone else is trying to figure out who's the killer or whatever and i'm very excited this is like a release from last year that i've kept meaning to get to and just haven't from what i've heard this touches on a lot of different themes so i feel like it's gonna be a really good pick for our like book club discussion i feel like we're gonna have a lot to talk about and yeah i'm just really glad that i'm finally getting around into this one because whilst i'm also trying to read 2022 releases which hasn't been going that well yet i'm also trying to get through the backlog of 2020 run releases that i still own time to read more it is time to read more in april it is time roll number three number six again which is yellow again oh my god we're so lucky i need to read a lot a lot a lot of fantasy this man okay a one and a three okay let's just go one two three which is number two which is a series i'm part way through oh my god not tbr cleaner making me read series next was another fantasy and that is a series i am part way through and for this i'm picking summer frost by blake crouch so this is the series i started i don't know if this is actually technically cast as a series i think it's more a collection this is a series of like really short um e-books on like kindle unlimited written by famous like sci-fi and fantasy authors and it's like a sci-fi collection i'm currently reading arc by veronica roth which is the first and i just want to read them all in order they're each like 50 pages long it won't take very long so i think i am going to finish this series this year so i don't feel bad about starting it because it's not going to take me long to finish i don't know really what this one is about the two that i really had on my radar before i decided to read the whole series were nk jemisins and andy wears but i'm really enjoying veronica roth's one so far it just seems like they were kind of like apocalyptic sci-fi um i think this one is about a game summer frost which is intriguing but i'm kind of going to go into all of these ebooks blind because they're literally only 50 pages long so i don't really want to know too much about the plot as long as i know the author i kind of know what to expect i feel like blake crouch's one is gonna be very like advanced clever i'm going to cry don't cry because then you're going to make me i'm looking forward to this i've really enjoyed reading veronica ross one so far i'm at the moment trying to read this weekend's vlog and it's all i'm not feeling that book but i really trying to finish arc but i'm like no i need to prioritize reading the other book i'm reading at the moment which has been hard but anyway i am definitely going to read at least one more in this series this month roll number four is number eight which is blue over here i would quite like to do the rose prompt this month so let's see if we can get to that we have got a two oh my god we've got a two that's perfect we'll just go one two so that is the rose prompt okay roll four was the rose probed i tried to do this like every other month because i really love doing it um so if you don't know when you join my patreon everyone gets to pick two books off of my other physical tbr or books um i have audio access to and they get to picture them and it goes we've upgraded ladies and gentlemen it used to be in this little pot but it got too big we are now in here so yeah they get rid of a piece of paper and go into here and then when i go on the rose prompt i pick one out of here and i read it that month so we're gonna be reading one and we'll find out who chose it okay let's give a good shakeroo i'm hoping for something that's pretty short because i have a video a vlog coming out this month that i need to read like short books for so that's what we're hoping for i've got one okay what have we got the hell what is pet okay oh at
