 let's get TBR rig! Every time I try and do an interview to TBR Cluedo, it just ends up being cringe. I should just stop. Hello my friends and welcome back to TBR Cluedo. It is time for our September TBR. If you don't know, this is my TBR game inspired by Super Cluedo. We have different rooms, each connect to a genre, a prompt we pick in that room means I have to read a book of that genre that fits that prompt. It's essentially the idea. And listen, autumn's the starting! Personality wise, I'm a summer girl. Like I've always been a summer girl. I love the sun, I get seasonal factors disorder. But content wise, I'm like YouTube wise and reading wise, I'm very excited for autumn. I feel like I'm just really gonna hit my hot girl era. Do you know what I mean? Like I really feel like that. So she says, wearing this hat. I'm really excited for my TBR in September. I'm really excited for some videos I've got coming up. Life's great. Life's great, you know? I definitely have had a moment where I've said to myself, wow. Let's get into the first roll. Roll number one. Whoa. Person number seven, which is brown. Let's see how many we roll. One out of four. I'm just gonna go one, two, three, four and get the rose prompt. So one of my patrons will be picking something I read this month. The first roll was the rose prompt, which means a patron is gonna pick what I read. When you join my patron, whatever T you are, you get to pick two books off of my physical TBR. So you put into this jar and then when it's a rose prompt, I pick one out and that goes on my TBR. By the way, if you ever want to join my patron, the first of the month, okay, today is the best time to join. If you wanted to join, we've got a movie night this weekend. We've got a final girls book club. I've got a Zoom call with my team Roars. We have a monthly Zoom call and reading sprints every week lesson. We do a lot over there. So if you ever wanted to join, now's your time. But now is the time to pick what I'm gonna be reading. I'm going on holiday for a week in September and I haven't planned what I'm reading yet. So this and one other prompt that we're gonna see later is probably gonna pick what I take with me on holiday. I'm not gonna do like a specific themed vlog when I go on holiday, but I am gonna take books and read and vlog it. So let's see and then we'll see who chose this book. I'm gonna reach in deep and get one. Okay, I don't like it. I get so nervous. Okay, focus on my hands. Okay, let's see what it is. What is that? No filter and other lies. Oh my god. Okay, that's a great holiday one. Let's see who picked that first. Okay, Jordan. Jordan picked it. Did anyone else pick it or is it just Jordan? No, just Jordan. Okay. Oh my god. This is such a good holiday one. I'm so happy. Oh my god. Jesus Christ. Check out the label. Okay, so this is no filter and other lies by Crystal Madonado. I am so happy I'm gonna be reading this because I've been thinking like, when am I gonna get to this like a YA contemporary romance on holiday? I taste the flavour. Yeah, so Crystal Madonado wrote Fat Chance Charlie Vega, which I would say is my favourite YA contemporary romance I've ever read. There wasn't like Heartstopper or Graphic Novel or something. By the way, how cute are these covers? Gorge. This one sounds really interesting though. It's about our main character who is like an influencer on Instagram, but it's all fake. They're like catfishing and it's about them. I think the story is going to be about them kind of seeking validation through this and then it's going to be about them accepting themselves. Oh yeah, and I think she starts texting someone and they start falling in love but then they get outed as a catfish. I don't know, I just really loved her writing last time, so I am so happy that this is why I ended up being picked. I would either want this or like a thriller or something on holiday. We'll see what the other book ends up being that we're gonna have to read. Yeah, this feels like a great pick. I'm very, very excited. I can just imagine myself on the beach loving this and reading this, so oh great pick Jordan. Next, we have person number six, which is yellow. Let's see how many we roll. Whoa. We have a one in a one. I can do that. I can do that. So let's just go one two, which is number 28, which is a book that you've never seen on Booktube. Roll two was a thriller that I have never seen on Booktube and this one, it's like technically correct. The rules don't apply. I've picked The Neighbour's Secret by Elle Erson Heller. Now I did see people haul this when they maybe got Book of the Month or anything. This was a Book of Month in September last year, so like a year ago. Oh my god, it's embarrassing. We all know I'm very good at reading books when they come out, but I didn't see anyone review it. I don't know what anyone's thought of it, so I'm picking it for this. I feel like it fits. I don't know much about this, other than it's very big little eyes, which if you watched my wrap up recently, it was my book club pick a couple months ago and I loved it. I gave it five stars. I was absolutely obsessed. I ate it up. I loved that drama. So I'm very excited to read this this month. I think it's going to be like a fun, quick thriller. There's a book club, but a late night act of vandalism target the woman of the book club in increasingly violent and personal ways. Someone's family died, a tragic accident. Oh, it just sounds so exciting. I've been looking for more books that make me feel like big little lives make me feel, and I'm very, very excited. I just love women being like, you know, I like, I love mums. There's so much untapped potential in reading about mums, like in suburbia that is just like so juicy to me. Oh, the flavors are bursting on my tongue. Roll number three, which is pink, which is number four. Let's see how many we roll. A one or a six. How can I get one of the two non-fictions? Because I can't really go that far. I don't think I'll be able to get too many photos staircase because it takes an extra roll. I have to go one, two, three before I even move. So we need to get one of these non-fictions. So how can I make this work? One, two, three, four, five, six. Oh my god, I did it. Well done me. Number 11, which is, I don't know, let me find it, an e-book or an audiobook. Okay, that's good. That's good for non-fiction. Next roll was a non-fiction that's an e-book or an audiobook. And I had a few that I wanted to pick for this. Actually, let's mention the two that I want to read this month. Both are audiobooks. The first is Wildflower by Drew Barrymore. Okay, listen, when I have read memoirs by strong women, I always give them five stars, right? Jeanette McCurdy's, I just read and gave five stars. Mariah Carey's one of the best audiobooks ever. Like, if you have a slight interest in Mariah Carey, go listen to her memoir but get the audiobook. She like, sings in it. She'll just burst out into song. I'm like, the coming by Michelle Obama. I seem to do, I do love celebrity female memoirs. So when there was that meme, like a month ago, not mean but video of Drew Barrymore like laughing in the rain, I just thought to myself, this is the energy I need in my life. And I've always had a special connection to Drew Barrymore because ever after is one of my favourite films of my childhood. I would watch it like on repeat around my nans. So I have like a special love for her. And you know, she's been through a lot when you think of what her childhood was like. She's been through a lot. So I really want to read her memoir. So I got that on Audible. I also have the audiobook for feminism for the 99%. That's the audiobook for this one's script. And I just feel like I have not been reading enough like feminist nonfiction, like feminist theory that I used to. I used to read a lot of it. So I would also really like to just get to this if I can at some point as well. So I have two picks with technically and I would like to get to both of them if I can because the audiobook for this is only like an hour long. But I'd really like to sit down and just like consume feminist thought at some point if I can. Roll number four. Person number eight, which is blue over here in contemporary. Let's see how many we roll. We have a five and a three. Let's just go one, two, three and get the glasses, which means I scroll on Instagram until I see a book that I own. Right, roll four. I'm a bit nervous now. A little bit nervous. I don't want me to see. Okay, so this is the role that's going to pick the other book I read on holiday. We're going to go on my Instagram and we're going to scroll until we see a book that I own. I have to own it physically. And two, it can't be planned for any other video. So I often have a lot of vlogs planned for the rest of the year. There's some books that I'm reserving for those videos. So I hold the right to reserve some books. Apprehensive, nervous, a bit scared, also weirdly calm, perhaps on the verge of hysteria. It might take us a while. I follow a lot of random stuff. Exhibit a football, rare beauty, no. Okay. Also Instagram is just loads of stuff I don't even follow. Like I don't even follow any of these people. What is going on? And it's all reals. Excuse Gemma Owen, I don't follow you. Like what is happening? Oh, okay. I don't own Wolf Song. Maddie almost got me, but I don't own Wolf Song. Hang on. I'm going to change. Let's do it to following. Let's do my third following. Oh, RF quang, but babble. Hey, I pre-ordered it, but my pre-order has not arrived yet. And I'm reserving that for another video. So we're not reading that. Oh, babbles on there. Marples on there, but I don't own that yet. And it doesn't come out for like half the month. So I'm not going to pick that. Because by the time I go on holiday, it won't be out yet. This is like homophobic, guys. Someone give me a book. Someone give me a book that I own. This is crazy. Oh, okay. Gaze the word. Can I see anything in Tasman's Reel that I own? I can't see anything. I'm like really trying to focus here. Like I'm really like pages. No, I don't own that. Don't own that. Don't own that. I know Tasman loves it. Don't own that. Don't own that. Almost bought that the other day, but don't own it. Nope. Are you yet to have anything? I don't own Stay Awake. I can't see anything there that I own. Okay. Right, you didn't see it. You haven't seen the video yet why I bought this, but I bought it the other day. You'll see it this weekend, but I do my own case. So it was back and we're going to read this on holiday. Do I want to? I guess I'm doing that. Oh my God. This is so good. Oh my God. So watch my holiday vlog if you want to see what I'm going to read. This is the perfect holiday book, though. Let's be honest. Oh yeah. Oh. So if you know me, you'll know. Ta-Jung can read. It's one of my All-Star, All-Star favorite authors where I've read three books from her. They've all been five stars. This, I actually, last night on my reading spirits, my patrons, I read the first chapter of this and I loved it. So I'm just feeling good. This is Carrie Soto's back where a following Carrie Soto who is an ex tennis player, we saw her in Malibu Rising. She played quite a big role in Malibu Rising. I think this takes place about 10 years later in 1994. Basically, another tennis player matches her record for like big titles. So what's the right word? I don't know. Yeah, her record has been broken or like drawn by this other tennis player and she's like, I'm going to come out every time. I'm going to beat this bitch. So that's what the book is about. And I think she goes to play this girl and try to beat her to like show everyone she's that bitch. She's the queen. Now I'm very intrigued to see how this book works because Carrie Soto was not likeable in the first book. Like she wasn't in Malibu Rising. I didn't like her. But I could see how I could end up liking her. But this is pretty momentous. God, holiday I'm going to be living my best life reading Carrie Soto. Wow, I love my life. I love my family. I love my work. I love my life. It's a five star prediction. I think I'm going to love it. I should love it. It's Carrie Soto. It's Terry Jenkins read. I loved the first chapter that I read. Like the way that Terry Jenkins read writes just gets me. And I can just imagine myself at the airport reading this book like, oh my God, the fantasy. Are we excited? Because we should be. Roll number five person number four, which is pink. I need to read a lot of fantasy this month and I haven't gotten any yet. Let's see how many we roll. Okay, we've got a five and a two. So when you're a staircase, we can go one, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Number 18, which is, oh, I don't think we've had this before. A book an audience member didn't like on all my unread books video. So roll five is a super fun one. I don't think I've got this before somehow, but it is a fantasy and it has to be a book that a subscriber said they hated on my all my unread books video. So once a year I do this video and I get people to comment what they loved and what they hated and we need to go to the comments of that video and find a book they hated. Now I actually picked this to be the book club pick. So let's cut back to me the other day, finding the four choices that they're going to have to vote on. Okay, it's late in the evenings and my, you're right by my laptop, which is exporting noisily. So apologies, but this is the one I decided to get my patrons to vote on, which is very exciting. So I'm going to just screen record my laptop and we're going to keep randomly selecting comments from that all my unread books video until we get four fancy books that people hated. Here's the idea. So start raffle and pick random winner. Start. A lot of them are just going to be people saying they, oh hate it, Cersei. Cersei I would say is a fantasy. So that's our first one. Yeah it's like most people are going to be saying they love books. Oh we've got loved it for Cersei there. Hate it the cruel print. Okay. Hated it uprooted in the bone season. Should we pick both of those? I guess. So there are four picks. Okay. Oh my god. Let's see what they vote on. Okay, so all these books are the books that someone hated but we're going to read them for the book club, which bodes well because we like very, very rarely enjoy all the books we read. So the options that I gave them were uprooted by Naomi Novik, The Bone Season by Samantha Shannon, The Cruel Prince by Holly Black and Cersei by Madeleine Miller. This is one of the oldest books on my TVR and it was very close between The Bone Season and Cersei but Cersei ended up winning. I'm really excited. I think this is going to be a great book for us to read together. Like I said it's one of the oldest books that I've owned for the longest and not read and I've never read anything from Madeleine Miller. I have not read Song of Achilles or this so yes I'm very excited. All I know is that it's about the Greek goddess Cersei and it's kind of like a retelling of the myths surrounding Cersei and I just feel like this is the perfect book for us to like transition into autumn with. Like September you know it starts becoming autumnal and I just think this is the perfect book to get that vibe going. So I'm so excited to see what we all think of this. If you want to join us you can come join the Patreon, we have discussions on the Discord, we have a live show for it and I do an exclusive reading vlog for it over there so yeah no I'm really really excited. I've heard so many great things about it and I'm very excited to see what I think of Madeleine Miller myself and I feel like it takes me back to like my early days of doing booktube and this was one of the books I was supposed to read and then I never read it. Person number one which is green oh my god thank god. I was gonna have to use a staircase again otherwise let's see how many we roll. We've got a one and a six let's just go one to get number six which is something with white on the cover and then our final roll was another fantasy with white on the cover and for this yeah I'm reading The Burning God but I'm crying. To save you suffer would be lovely darling. I'm currently reading The Dragon Republic I'm about 80 pages into it and then I'm gonna read The Burning God like pretty much straight after. Am I nervous? Yes. Am I excited? Not really. Do I feel sick? Absolutely. Like the vibes aren't good for me honestly I'm very nervous but I'm also excited. It's taken me those 80 pages of The Dragon Republic to like get into it but now I feel like I'm into it and I'm very excited to read more today. I am gonna try and read Final Girls. I'm gonna try and read The Dragon Republic quick enough. Our live show for Final Girls which is August's book club pick. I'm gonna try and read The Dragon Republic quick enough to read Final Girls in between that and The Burning God to give myself a bit of a break because I feel like I need it so that's the goal. I need to get a lot of reading done today if that's gonna happen but yeah then I'm gonna finish off the series and then I feel like it puts me in a good position to maybe read Babel in October. I would love to read Babel in October so that's the plan. So this is our TBR for September plus Wildflower by Drew Barrymore either that or Feminism for 99%. One of those. I'm so excited. Firstly the holiday books. I'm so happy with what's come up. They're like the perfect book street on holiday. I'm excited to read The Neighbor's Secret, excited to read Cersei, excited.
