 I'd say for sure, but this is an album we're talking about. We can never trust you again, and once? Is it really once? Okay, that's all I got though. So after a very challenging October that for me is not yet done, because I'm still, I'm filming this early, so I'm not done with October yet. I have a much, much chiller November TBR, which makes me very hopeful that in November I can actually do a bunch of stuff that I couldn't do in October. I didn't have time to touch any of my vlog projects, so no progress was made on those. I didn't have any time to do writing. I didn't have time to do any mood reading. Didn't have time to sleep or eat. So I'm excited to do a bunch of that in November. There's several books that are not on my TBR because my TBRs are just obligations except for October where I just crammed it. But yeah, my TBR is my obligation books, and then I do hope that I have several books in mind that I would like to get to in November, if I have time. Again, my vlog project books I would like to get to in November. But anyway, you're here to hear about the books that I am guaranteeing I will read in November. First, before I forget, I have a book that I don't have a physical copy of, and that is Mort by Terry Pratchett. That is the book my patients have chosen for me to read and vlog for them. I ordered the cool hardcover from the UK, so I just not arrived yet. But yeah, that is the first book on my TBR. Should make Alan very happy. The next book I've got is City of Dragons by Robin Hall. This is the third book in the realm, or the third book in the Rainwild Chronicles, which is the fourth series of series in the realm of the Elderlings. Mara and I are continuing our buddy read, and we aim to be done with the Rainwild Chronicles by the end of this year. So City of Dragons in November, and then Blood of Dragons in December, and then we'll reconvene for another chat about what we've read so far in January. But yeah, I'm looking forward to this. I think this looks, I think this is the shortest one in the Rainwild Chronicles, and thereby also probably the shortest book in the realm of the Elderlings. Maybe Assassin's Prentice is shorter. That's decently short. But they all bloomed after that. So anyway, I'm excited to see where the story goes. Next is the patron buddy read. We did a two-parter. In October, we read Frankenstein, and then part two is in November, we're gonna read The Dark Descent of Elizabeth Frankenstein. This is a reread for me. I hype it all the time, so my patrons are about to break my heart, and they'll tell me that, oh, that actually sucked, and we can never trust you again, and your taste, it turns out, is garbage. And yeah, so I look forward to that. If you've never heard of this, this is a retelling of Frankenstein from the perspective of Elizabeth Levenza. I think it's brilliant as a book. I think it's also a brilliant example of what a retelling can and should be, and yeah, I'm excited to reread this. Next up, the read-along is actually starting this time, unless Alan comes into sabotage at last minute. The Wolf by Leo Garoo. This will be, I'm pretty sure, my sixth time reading it, and I'm so excited to read it again. We will be chatting about it. Me, Alex, and Alan for sure. I say for sure, but with Alan we're talking about. As soon as Alan finds out that I didn't give Morse five stars, maybe I'll give Morse five stars. See it? Okay, yeah, maybe I'll give Morse five stars regardless of how I feel about it, just to make sure that Alan shows up for this, and then I can go back and change my rating if need be. Okay, that's a good plan. So if you missed, if you don't want to talk about it, I mentioned a couple videos ago, or a couple TBR videos ago, that because the third and final book in the Under the Northern Sky series is The Cuckoo, it actually already came out in the UK, and I'm currently looking at three copies that I have of it, because I accidentally ordered too many and I do have a forthcoming. But anyway, The Wolf is one of my all-time favorite books in the series. The Spider is actually better, but I've actually only read that once? Is it only once? You guys said it was only once. I've read this like five or six times though, but The Spider is better. But anyway, so we're doing a read-along because in the US, The Cuckoo is being released in December. So we're doing this in November, then we're gonna talk about The Spider in December, and then in January, to give everybody time to read it because it comes out in December, we're gonna talk about The Cuckoo, the third and final book, which I have never read. I have a bunch of copies of it now, but I have not read it. So I am very, very excited to read this and talk about it and have everybody break my heart because everyone can tell me it's not that great and I need to pick a different favorite. But you're all wrong, this book is brilliant and I can't wait to talk about it. Next up on my Book of the Month Club books, which I require myself to read in the subsequent month. So what I got in October, therefore I must read in November, I got Fistlefoot by Jenna Rose Nethercott. I don't know anything about this except that the cover intrigues me and that I believe it has a heavy folklore inspiration, like Russian folklore. I mean, we've got Baba Yaga's house on the cover. So yeah, that's how I chose it. The cover slash Eastern European folklore. That's all I really needed to know. And the other Book of the Month Club book is Spells for Forgetting by Adrienne Young. It's Adrienne Young's first adult novel. I read her debut Sky in the Deep and thought it was decent because also I'm just trash for Vikings. And then since then I've read her books and I have liked them less and less instead of getting better and better. This is her first adult book. So I'm giving this a go as well. I really like her as a person, like a follower on social media. So I keep really, really wanting to like her books. I keep buying them because I like her. Like I would want to be friends with her in real life. She seems like a very chill person. But when I read her books, I'm just like, okay, well that's all I got though. I'm hoping that maybe her recent Dwyer books were not that good because she, like all of her brain juice was actually more on this yourselfing, but we'll see, we'll see. Next up is Confessor, which was on my previous TBR because I was wrong about the order. This is the, almost the last book we're reading and this is the last book chronologically that we were reading and that we are reading. And then in December we're gonna go back and read the prequel book, Dead of Bones, which I don't have, I need to get it. But anyway, I mistakenly put this on my October TBR when I should have put Phantom on my TBR because that was actually the next book. So for realsies, this time I'm reading Confessor and the live show for this will be on Bethany's channel. Yes. And last, but absolutely never least is The Wisdom of Crowds by Joe Abercrombie because we are concluding the first law read-along on the podcast and, and, and, and, and, and, don't go anywhere, don't go anywhere, I see you. Don't click away. We are not just recording a podcast for this. We are gonna do it live on the podcast. So instead of like, you know, pre-recording it and posting it, we're gonna do a live show for Wisdom of Crowds. I know a bunch of my patrons were reading first law, so they're all caught up. Hopefully, I mean, it's been out for a year. So hopefully if you're all caught up, you can come join us. So we're gonna do a live show on the last Tuesday of, the last Tuesday of November, which I believe is the 29th. But regardless, the last Tuesday for sure. At 6 p.m. Pacific time, 9 p.m. Eastern time. And yeah, I hope you'll, I hope to see you there. I'll like, leave links, well, I can't leave, I'll leave the podcast link down below if you haven't subscribed and you can subscribe. And then, you know, as we come closer to the live, you know, I'll, I'll share it on my community tab or whatever, so you can come and join us. And yeah, so this is the only one I haven't reread before. I've obviously read this before. But this will be my first time rereading it. So even though I came away from this, thinking that this is the best one, the first time, if I'd be one of those, it's like really good the first time, but like, doesn't that good on reread? So we're about to find out if I feel the same way again. And those are all the books that I will absolutely 100% for sure read in November. Let me know in the comments down below your thoughts and feelings about what I'm gonna read. If you like these books, if you hate these books, if you're gonna join in on any of the reading of these books. Whatever you wanna let me know, I post videos on Saturdays, or the random times of the moment, definitely Saturdays, so like and subscribe for my Patreon if you feel so inclined and I'll see you when I see you.
