 let's get ready ready let's get ready ready let's get ready to pick what i'm gonna read this month hello friends welcome back to tbr cluedo my tbr game that we play monthly it's themed off of super cluedo or clue if you're american or canadian maybe has clues but i don't know it's cluedo to me okay different rooms correlate to different genres and then i get a reading prompt and i have to read a book that fits that reading prompt in that genre for the books the weapons don't apply to genre march has been the most books i've ever read ever in a month so i'm feeling such good vibes for april i'm feeling really excited there's a few vlogs that are scaring me a bit there's a few that are really exciting me and we're gonna chat about some of the books i'm gonna read be reading this month well some of the books i might have no plans to read that we have to put in tbr cluedo and i have to work them in if i can we shall see let's just get into the first rolls i don't have anything else to tell you so let's just get going okay time for roll number one person number four which is pink over here let's see how many we roll we've got two in a one okay let's just go one that is number 30 which is a wild card oh my god i have not got wild card for ages yes okay that's good roll one was a wild card i cannot remember the last time we had a wild card i love a wild card i can read anything anything it's not constrained by genre by prompt i can pick anything so pick me choose me love me and the problem is i actually don't know a lot of what i'm going to be reading this month yet or if there are there are certain videos but if i tell you even like one more book that i've already told you for the video you'll know what it is and i don't want you to know for this i was thinking what can i pick like there's two big vlogs i don't currently know why i'm reading for them and i was like oh god what i picked but then i remembered that i really need to finish my reread of the wayward children series this month i need to read come tumbling down across the green grass fields and where the giant girls go so these are my wild card pick i started in january i did a little readathon with my patrons and i was vlogging me rereading the wayward children series for them one thing led to another i think the end was my birthday then i got ill and then i've been kind of behind ever since was live after getting ill and so i've never finished my reread that i was doing at the end of january of the wayward children series so i really need to just read these three books this month and get that vlog i'm doing a vlog of my reread of it for my patrons get that to them so that is what my wild card pick is i love these i gave these all five stars i mean i love the wayward children series with my whole heart so i'm really excited to reread them and then i will soon read lost in the moment of found well i don't know that i just believe in my soul that i will soon read lost in the moment and found so i thought even though you're not going to see me reread these that doesn't mean i am still going to read them they can go on the tbr so that's what i'm putting on there roll number two person number five which is white over here in thriller let's see how many we roll we've got a one the five what can we get two in that oh my god the cat's kissing you guys can't see what i can see hey mika don't walk over the board is this so interesting i gotta find out what i'm gonna read right what was i doing yes seeing how many what we can get two with that okay we've got a one and a five where can we get two with that one two three no that's four one two three four five there we go that is number 25 which is a book that matches my outfit right now for the record i'm right now i'm wearing like a blue jumper and blue leggings you can't see the leggings that's just my foot no blue leggings roll two was a thriller that matched my outfit when i was filming the rolls and the cover i mean i believe all of this book's covers are quite blue but i believe it particularly the uk one i haven't bought it yet okay i need to get it i'm just like in denial about me doing this video so i haven't bought it yet but i'm gonna be reading the last thing he told me which is a thriller all i really know about it is that we're following this woman whose husband goes missing and she's with his stepdaughter and they're trying to figure out what's going on i think the last thing he told her was to look after his daughter secrets from this man's life start appearing was he really who he said he was did he have this whole secret other life what is going on a movie it's just about to come out which looks really good so i'd like to read the book well i am going to read the book but watch the film i think the film's coming out in like a couple months i don't really know when i don't keep up to date with dates so watch daisy jones because like guys i haven't watched daisy jones my mum this woman okay i gotta tell you this we're gonna watch it together because she read the book and loved it but she read one bad review in the guardian and now whenever i say tell me to watch it she goes oh it's been so panned everyone's hated it this woman has read one one bad review one bad view she's like oh it's been so universally panned this woman can say anything with conviction and it sounds like she's correct i'm like everyone else has loved it you read one review that is not universally panned anyway so yes i am excited to read this i don't know too much about it i know that it's one like a good reads awards before but i haven't had a ton of booktubers talk about it and their opinion i get the sense it was like a big kind of thriller for the masses but i can't remember maybe i missed maybe i wasn't on booktube when people talk about this but i don't know what a lot of people thought thought of it so yes going through reading that this month as well roll what is this number three number seven which is brown okay let's try and get the rose prompt if we can oh it's got a four and a six can we get to that yeah we can think we just go one two three four there we go we got the rose prompt roll three was the rose prompt so if you don't know when oh my god hello when you join my patreon everyone gets to pick two books that they would like me to read off of my own tbr it gets put into this jar and when it's the rose prompt we pick it out and we read it so that's what we're gonna be doing actually i need to get my laptop so i can see who's picked what books the rose prompt fills me with such nerves but i also have such faith in my patrons that i feel like we've had pretty good luck with it so fast um apprehensive nervous a bit scared also weirdly calm perhaps on the verge of hysteria so let's just pick one out and see what we get like i said i'm hoping that whatever i pick out i can fit into one of those vlogs i don't know what i'm gonna be reading yet okay let's reach on in okay i've got 10 i'm trying to just pick one out okay i've got it maybe we've had this before last time we did it we had like 10 that i've already read okay what is that ghostwood song okay um i'm pretty sure that's wrapped up let me see who said that jordan has said it just jordan just jordan has chosen ghostwood song i've got to find that now you guys i'm pretty sure it's wrapped up oh my god why couldn't it been something that wasn't wrapped up oh i found it that was pretty easy it was like the third book i looked at so just jordan it's funny there's some books in there like finny donovan is killing air i don't know there's loads more that like 10 000 people have chosen and i feel like a lot of time we just get a book that one person chose which i think is interesting what are the odds of that okay here we go so we have got ghostwood song by erica waters now i did read the rest of the stock by erica waters at the end of last year and it did make it onto my least ever books of last year videos i'm a bit nervous i don't know much about it i know one of my patrons other patrons melissa loved it we've got a cursed instrument her brother's just been accused of murder does she unearth the fiddle and nightmares sang her father to the grave so she can speak to the dead and clear her brother's name or watch the only family she has splintered to pieces okay i didn't love the rest of stock but i feel like a lot of people said to me when i read that i still think you could like ghostwood song but if i don't like this me and erica waters probably i'm gonna buy but i love her synopsis and her books also sound so atmospheric and incredible and immersive and wonderful so that's that we're gonna read in ghostwood song oh my god jordan i don't know how i feel about that one i don't know what you feel about that one okay okay we're reading ghostwood song i will try and fit that into all my vlogs this month okay row number four person number one which is green oh what if we get the glasses as well okay how do we roll one two oh yeah yeah yeah one two three yeah we got the glasses so row number four was the glasses weapon and the glasses if you haven't seen before we've only done it a few times i have to scroll through my instagram and the first book that i see that i own i have to read unless i reserve the right that if it's a book that i have set aside for like a set video that i have to read in that video then we won't read it but otherwise we're reading that so i'm gonna go well start trying to go through my timeline but if not we might have to go through people's stories i follow a lot of non-bookish accounts so you're gonna see that right now so i don't know how good i like will be last time we did this so we've got like secret london posting something okay whatever um last one with this we got carry soto is back which i loved and was incredible so i'm hoping for something good from this so okay this is not berks everyone got daisy jones i have to watch daisy jones oh oh okay there's books there i own hang on hang on hang on risa's book club okay hang on hang on hang on okay let's have a look at what is there that i own there is oh my god the last thing he told me i could just i could have just used that for this anyways honey and spice shit am i gonna be reading honey and spice i think that's the only one there that i own yeah that i haven't read other than the last thing he told me well can i just double up i don't think i don't think i'm allowed no i don't i don't no i'm not allowed i know i'm not allowed not that i don't want to read honey and spice okay we're just gonna read honey and spice we're just gonna read it okay oh my god we're gonna be reading honey and spice by body babalola i have had such wonderful things about this romance i feel like it's going to be a romance that i give five stars so many people have loved it like i've said many times i follow body babalola on twitter i love her commentary i don't watch love island but i used to like basically watch it through her commentary on it i think she's one of the funniest people on twitter so i am feeling good about this i think it's set at like a uk university and they just fall in love and i've heard such wonderful things so i'm actually really excited okay i could have not read this for ages had tbl kludo not made me read it so i actually i something about these weapons bro it like forces me to read books well that is the idea of tbl kludo megan person number three which is what is that red red first not being historical see how many we roll oh my gosh we've got a six and a five let's just go one two three four five which is number eight which is a 2022 release roll number five was a historical that was a 2022 release and this is a choice that i gave to my patrons to vote on so they vote on one round of tbl kludo every month and then that ends up being our book club pick for the month and let me tell you sometimes we have like two two ones that run away with the vote right this time it was a fairly even split between a lot of the books but we had two books that up until almost the last moment were drawn okay and then it's come down to one vote so the books that i gave them the choice of between were wild and wicked things by franchesca may kike by vishnavi patelle the night ship by jess kid and take my hand by dillene perkins valdez and it was a wild and wicked things and kike that it my hope i'm pronouncing that right that's how i've seen other people pronounce it yeah it was pretty much these two that were drawn up until the last moment and then right at the last moment one more person voted and tipped the scales my vote was for kike but the one that won was wild and wicked things by franchesca may so that's what we're going to be reading for the book club i can see why it won because it's one of the most like evocative like cool sounding atmospheric books but i haven't heard the best things it hasn't got the best reading on goodreads which i feel like that one did but anyways i'm not fuming i'm like i'm a little bit but yeah no i'm bothered i'm bothered i don't want to turn you off of it it's set in 1920s it reads a dazzling tale of dark magic romance and murder i am still really excited for this i bought this kind of on a whim in waterstones like last year and i still think i could love it we've got witches we've got these glittering 1920s parties it sounds very like great gatsby and it's kind of parties and like american wealth and all of that so yeah i'm really intrigued by this brimming with romance and gilded with danger oh this intoxicating story lingers like a deep dark wine wow what a vibe so yeah we're gonna be reading wild and wicked things for the book club in april if you want to join the link is always down below for the patreon and i'm excited i'm intrigued i think like this one could be one to have a good discussion about and we've had such good luck this year i don't want like toot my own horn but like after struggling last year i feel like with the book club picks we've had three really strong picks at the start of this year so either this is gonna continue the train you know the good vibes train or this is gonna ruin us and give us bad vibes okay time for our final roll i feel like this has gone really fast person number two which is purple down here in romance let's see how many we roll we've got a three and a five okay we just go one two three two number four which is a book i've bought because of a booktuber okay interesting and then the final roll was a romance that i have bought because of a booktuber and here's the thing right i i think i need to change the terminology of this one is like a book that i've bought because of booktube because often i'll hear this person talk about a book and this person talk about a book and like their opinions together will like you know make me want to buy a book or just hear about it everywhere from different booktubers and i'm like okay i need to buy that i very rarely buy a book just because of one booktuber it does happen but usually i'm getting books because i've heard little bits here and little bits there and little bits there that's made me intrigued about a book so that's what we're doing it's like i've just seen this book everywhere i've heard a lot of people talk about it so i have chosen half a soul by olivia atwater i'm gonna be reading this this month and i'm very excited i just know this is regency england romance fey fairy tales she's got half a soul excited you guys what you understand i have never read like a modern book about regency england romance like it's just such a vibe it's such a vibe i'm so beyond beyond beyond excited for this i just feel like this is gonna be a five star and i'm gonna love it and i'm gonna adore it i'm gonna eat it up and it's become gonna become my favorite like romance fantasy series of all time it's cozy fantasy which i'm always at the moment looking out for more of because i feel like cozy fantasy is my shit and i was placed on this earth to read cozy fantasy that's generally how i how i feel so that was a big reason i got this because people were talking about it in the same breadth of books like legends and lattes so that's really why i picked this up because i wanted more cozy fantasy to read but yeah we're gonna be reading this it's not that i'm so excited so we have everyone that was my april it was april right i have been saying the right thing the whole time yes april tvr cluedo i hope you enjoyed let me know please what you thought of any of these books i would love to know i feel like my heart pressure my no blood pressure heart rate i have two things there i'm again it's always higher up to tvr cluedo it was for like adrenaline because i was like oh my god especially when i do the things like the rose prompt or the glasses where it's like okay that's just decided why
