 So, who's ready to look for some more kalooos? Welcome back, it is time for the second episode of TBR Kalooos! I'm so excited, this is quickly becoming the highlight of the month for me in terms of is that Amazon delivery? This is quickly becoming for me the highlight of my videos. I absolutely love making TBR Kalooos, it's quickly becoming like my favorite thing to make. I've got a scrunchie on my hand, let me take that off. This is our second month, if you want to know all the rules, if you don't know all the rules, I will leave the first video linked down below. Last month where I go through all the rules of everything but if you already know, let's go! Oh my goodness, I'm so embarrassed. Something embarrassed, I love you. So we've got quite a lot of housekeeping to get through, I'm gonna try and go through it quick but we want to know that's not especially my speciality. If you already know, if you didn't see the announcement last night, I have started a Patreon. I'm so excited, I have wanted to start a Patreon for so long to kind of have that like close-knit community on there but I wanted to do it at a time when I could really give it my all and like make it worth people's money because you know I wouldn't want to do it at a time when I was half-assing it whereas now I feel like there's so many cool things we're going to be doing on there together and I'm just so excited. So I'll leave the announcement video for that link down below and my Patreon if you want to go check that out. I launched it last night and I'm already overwhelmed at how many people have signed up. I really, it was gone beyond kind of my wildest dreams for what I was hoping for and I'm just so excited to go kind of get to know everyone better and to just have fun. We have a Discord, we have weekly live reading sprints, we have a book club, a podcast and there's quite a few elements of it that actually relate to TBR Cluedo. So that's kind of the main reason I'm mentioning it because it changes some parts of TBR Cluedo. So you may remember last month I showed you the rose weapon and I was like my lips are sealed. I can't tell you what that is yet. Well now I can! So basically the rose weapon if I land on that in TBR Cluedo I will pick a random book out of this tin and this tin is going to be filled with book recommendations from all my Patreons. So all tiers have this option when you join you can pick two books off of my own TBR and recommend them to me and then if I land on the rose prompt I pick a book out of here. So I can't do that in this round because obviously we haven't had time to like get everyone's books in that they want to recommend but from next month we will be able to do the rose prompt. I'm really excited to see like what kind of books you guys pick the most from my own TBR that you want me to read. It's going to be really interesting to see. So that is what the rose prompt is. Also those in my Lux and Roura tier they're named after my cats. So those in my top two tiers can participate in the Book Club and the way we're going to decide what book we read from the Book Club is is that one out of the six rolls every month will be voted on by my Patreons. So one of the rolls I will pick to be voted on by you guys I will pick four books that we could possibly read from the Book Club and you'll vote on it and that will determine one round of TBR Cluedo that is in your hands. It's out of my hands. Well I can pick four books but other than that it's out of my hands. Anyway so I'm in control but I'm out of control and I'm also um controlled so in a way I'm everything. And if you're in the top tier if you're in the Roura tier when you join I'll send you a handwritten thank you letter but it will also come with two of the TBR Cluedo books. So these lovely little books that we all love I will send you two of them along with your letter if you're in the top tier. A lot of you say they look like candy and I agree one day I will make candies but as of now you can have the actual books if you want basically. So yeah that is everything kind of to do with TBR Cluedo that is happening on my Patreon if you want to read about it all I'll leave it linked down below. I've already been speaking for six minutes so we've got to hurry this up a bit. What else do we have to talk about before we get into the roles? Oh we decided that the punishment is if I have one role that I can't reach a prompt on that adds a book to my TBR. I was originally thinking like three but that that quickly became clear that wasn't gonna happen so we're gonna do that one role that I can't reach a prompt on adds a book. So it'll go from six books in total to seven books essentially. Last piece of housekeeping is that I read all of my august books so it was these five books plus an audio book and I read them all. I'm pretty sure they are all in vlogs I'll leave those all linked down below if you want to go check them out as well. So no punishments for me. No punishments for me. Okay let's finally get into the roles shall we? Let's finally get into the roles. I'm gonna take the hat off. It's about time! And over to past Megan for role number one. So first we roll the eight sided dice to see who we move. Number eight that is blue. Okay so we're over here. I do have a thriller that I want to read but like the prompt could very easily not fit that. Let's see let's see how many I roll because that will determine what we do. Okay so we have got a two and a four. Okay I can't go very far anyway. What do I do? Oh my god okay okay can I go one two three four five six and I can't get to that one. One two three four five. Okay how do I get to one of these? Hang on. One two three four five six. Okay we'll go for this one. What number is that? That is number 22. That is a title with three words. Okay thank you past Megan. So role number one was a thriller with a title that has three words. For this I'm picking a book that's actually on its way to me right now. The reason I got excited when I thought there was an amazon ran outside is because it should be coming today but it is They Never Learned. I can't remember who the author is but it's called They Never Learned. You've probably seen this like doing the rounds a bit on booktube. A lot of people have been reading it and it's been really popular so far. I believe this isn't about a professor at university who's like this great professor. She's also great at killing men. Power bitch moves. Let's go. So I think she like tracks down men who are shitty like the most the terrible list. Terrible list Megan come on now. The most terrible men that are out there. She tracks them down and she kills them and she just keeps doing it and she ain't been caught bitch. That's all I really know about it but I'm really excited to read it. I've heard a lot of people say that it's the kind of thriller that I'll enjoy. I do enjoy a bit of a shitty main character like in a thriller. I think that can be such a fun thing for authors to play with and I often think like some of the best thrillers have shitty main characters but that is the first book they're gonna be reading. I'm really excited. Let me know if you've read it because it has been pretty popular. That is roll one. Let's go see what I get for roll two. Okay time for roll two. Number seven is brown. Where is brown? Oh brown's here. Okay I've got a lot of fantasy. I want to read this month like I haven't really read any fantasy like pure fantasy for the past two months and I want to read a lot this month so we're gonna try and get in there if we can. Six. Okay we can do that I think. One, two, three, four, five, six. Okay woo! Look how easy that was. Okay number three that is start a new series. Roll two was fantasy which I was very happy with. A lot of my like planned TBR for other videos, secret videos this month of fantasy so I was like please god let me get some people that are close to fantasy so I can read one in there. God has smiled on. I got the prompt start a new series so the book I've chosen for this is Jade City by Fonda Lee. Now I wasn't like listen I wasn't over the moon when I got started a new series because as maybe you know I'm currently reading a lot of series. Let me actually put a screen recording of my like all my series I'm in the middle of spreadsheet. It's pretty it's pretty bad it's pretty it's pretty bad like you guys it's pretty bad um so I'm trying to finish off some series before I start some more but I am very excited to read this. I've had so many good things about it. I believe this is this fantasy world where Jade is like how people get their power and I think it's mafia families basically who are all trying to like get the Jade and be in control of the Jade. I've had so many good things this was super big on booktube but it kind of is still but I remember it kind of kicked off last year towards the end of last year. I'm intimidated because it's long it's pretty long pretty small font but I've had so many good things I'm hoping I'm gonna fly through it so yeah Jade City is on my TBR for this month. Okay next roll let's see we get this one this time two that is purple where is purple oh well I do have a few historical books actually this month so maybe that that would be good I can't pick the rows yet because I haven't got the recommendations five okay one two three four five we'll go there so that oh oh my god so that is 24 or 29 no this is 29 a book 29 is a book one of my cats would enjoy it okay so roll three was a historical book that one of my cats would enjoy you can tell that by the end of like 28 29 30 I was assigned to run out of prompts like prompt ideas for this I have chosen this spirit engineered by AJ West this is an arc I have of it I am so excited to read this I picked this for Raura queen Raura my oldest cat she likes dark shit she's a mean girl so like Miko I always see is like nonfiction you know he wants to explore the world Lux I always see is contemporary romance he's a bit of a soft boy Raura likes thrillers mystery horror anything with a bit grit to it that's what she likes because that's who she is so this is set in uh Belfast in like the nine 1914 I have the mind of a master master I have the mind of a master mind what's that I don't know 1914 Belfast and I believe it follows this kind of scientist who's very much a skeptic but he gets drawn in into the world of like spiritualism and like ghost contacting and the occult and he starts to believe that that is actually real this is one of my most anticipated releases of this year I'm super excited to be reading this I'm gonna be reading it for the magical Rudathon I'm gonna have a vlog coming out at some point this month for the magical Rudathon so I'm very much excited to read it I I'm hoping I'm gonna love it so much like it just sounds like my perfect kind of book and as we're getting into kind of the more autumnal months I think this is gonna be great this does come out in October I think at the start of October so yeah I'm hoping I'm gonna love it I'm really really excited thank you Queen Raura for allowing me to pick this prompt this is roll four we haven't got a punishment yet which is good whoa number four is pink where is pink oh up here last month I had loads of mysteries to read and this month okay let's see what we get seven one two three four five one two three four five six one two three four five six seven okay we'll go with that one that is number 25 which is a book that matches my outfit right now when I'm filming okay so round four was a bit of an interesting one it was a mystery that matches the outfit I was wearing when I was doing TBR Cluedo bit I filmed it this morning before I got ready so I was wearing a yellow hoodie it's fashion needs it's fashion excuse me it's fashion so I had to find a mystery that matched this which is hard because I feel like mysteries usually have like dark covers and I had to find a yellow one but I fucking did it I fucking did it I'm so proud of myself I picked the bungalow mystery by Nancy Drew look at that look at all that yellow look at all that yellow listen you can't touch me I'm untouchable look at all that yellow I love Nancy Drew okay I played Nancy Drew a lot when I was a kid the video games who else we are bad bitches if you played the Nancy Drew games when you were a kid not a joke just a fact not a joke just a fact not a joke just a fact I've played them recently like in the last couple years and I still really love them I think they're so much fun I think it's kind of where my love of mysteries come from I wasn't planning on reading this this month it wasn't like in a video or anything I think I'll just read it on my own but it's only 180 pages so like and this is like the original Nancy Drew book so I'm reading the ones from like the 1950s 60s I don't know when this came out 1930 I really don't know yeah maybe 1930s sounds right yeah I don't know this is the bungalow mystery which I do know that one of the games I believe here isn't here here is my Nancy Drew knowledge I believe the game The Secret of the Old Clock combines the first book The Secret of the Old Clock and oh no maybe it combines number four the mystery at lilac inn I don't know but I'm very excited to read this all the same I just love like cozy mysteries and this Nancy Drew just gets me I just it's just nostalgic isn't it by the way if anyone knows where I can get the audio back for these let a go no I've looked everywhere they used to be on script I listened to the first two on the script and they have like music sound effects which I'm a ho for and then they deleted them all they deleted them all they have like new ones I don't care about that I want the OGs and they're gone they're not on audible they're not on liby they're not on like anything that I can find so if you know where these original original original Nancy Drew books are as audio books let me know because I love them I know they're in existence I just can't get them anywhere next roll to find out who we roll I want to use a weapon oh number one who is number one number one is green in contemporary okay okay okay seven this we can do this um one two three four five no that's there the daggers on that one one two three four five six seven okay we'll go for that which is number 11 oh okay that works out number 11 is an ebook or an audiobook so round five was actually perfect it was a contemporary that was an ebook or an audiobook which I was probably gonna pick anyway I was gonna probably pick an audiobook because I don't really have many contemporaries that I had to read this month so I was already gonna pick an audiobook so like it was just easy I could pretty much read any contemporary I wanted so I have picked other words for home which I believe is a middle grade it's only like three hours long which is part of where I picked it I got quite a busy reading month this month so I didn't want to pick something like crazy long so this is about a young girl who I believe has to leave Syria and comes and moves to America and it's about her kind of experience like being in this different country all of a sudden without like I think her father and brother aren't there and just kind of getting used to this like new country and like the struggles that come along with that I've heard some really good things about it and I'm really excited to read it this was a good pick for me because it's not long it's not long I picked very much a shorter audiobook but um yeah it's one I almost read this month at the end of this month but I didn't quite finish my current audiobook in time so I'm glad that I basically just moved it on to next month okay and time for our last roll roll six time for our last roll who have we got number seven again I feel like we've had that person brown okay that's another fantasy which is good because I have a lot of fantasy like I said on my tbr this month nine one two three four five six seven where do we go one two three four five six seven eight no one two three four five six seven eight no one two three four five six seven eight nine I did it I did it that's number one what is number one a new to me author oh am I gonna pick for that a new to me author another fantasy and this time it had to be a new to me author and I have picked a song of race and ruin by rosanne a brown not gonna lie this is kind of a book where I got it a year ago and I've forgotten what it's about let's just forget about that shall we could you just cut that out yeah I believe there is um very much something to do like a brother and sister in this and their relationship and this guy and the crown princess of the the you know country the place they live at and they're in like a contest I don't know that's what I can remember off the top of my head but I remember everyone really really enjoying this he read it and the second one is now out so I kind of just want to like get my way into this series yes I know it's another series I'm starting let's not talk about it it's hard isn't it it's hard series are hard you guys series are hard series are hard but yeah this is the last book that I have picked and it's a new to me author I've never read from this author before I believe this was also a debut but that could be wrong but I believe this was a debut okay so that is my tbr for September I've obviously only got four of them physically right now because we've got they never learn coming and then other words for home right other words for home is um an audiobook this comes to about 2100 something pages 2173 I think so that's all too much but jade city and a song of race and ruin are both quite long so I'm a little bit intimidated of them but I reckon we'll be able to do it let me know if you've read any of these books what you've thought of them I'd absolutely love to know if you've read any of them and your opinions on them and also let me know what is on your tbr for months what you're gonna be reading I'm super excited to know and thank you so much for watching tbr clue day I hope you enjoyed it I absolutely love making these so yeah I will see you very soon in another video bye
