That blurb for Forgery of Roses was actually super intriguing!! Love your TBR game, it truly is random now that your shelves get scrambled at the start of play! Loved your races choose my reading for a week vlog. Happy 2024.
RIGHT?! I've had that in my cart for a while now & every time I read the synopsis I'm intrigued all over again! Oh no, now I made the wrong decision! 😂😂
Oh I'm excited for you to try the Twisted series! The first one isn't my favorite in the series, but it is really fun. But Beach Read is actually my favorite!! I love it so much. I hope you do too!!
I've been wanting to get into the Twisted series for SO long so the fact that the wheel chose this one is fate! 😊😊 I've heard that the first one definitely isn't the best one but that's ok! I have never read a Emily Henry so I'm SO excited that I get to jump into Beach Read this month! Have you read Book Lovers by her!?
I’m enjoyed watching this video. These spin wheel videos just keep getting better and better and are so fun to watch . This’s definitely inspiring me to want to use a spin wheel to pick my tbr.💗💗
Your monthly TBR wheel video's are my favorite on youtube! I just love your tbr collection. I also have a very large tbr collection and have started a similar means of choosing my monthly tbr. Its just so fun. I cant wait to hear your thoughts on Twisted Love & Scythe. The Shatter Me series was not for me but Im curious to hear what your thoughts are for it as well. Thank you for making these awesome video's, i look forward to them every month. :)
**blushing** omg what a compliment! thank you so much!! i'm so glad my organized chaos is something you can look forward to! 😂😍😂😍😂 i just absolutely LOVE to be surrounded by books - it's my happy place! ooo i would love to hear how you pick your books! i have a few challenge videos incoming with those books you mentioned!! 😊😊😊
These videos are so much fun! Something that may help is having a separate wishlist on Amazon for KU books. I have several wishlists so I can keep things organized, like the ones I want to read on KU. Just something that has helped me. 😊 Can't wait to see how your reading month goes! Side note....it is Lynn. 😂 She writes some spicy contemporary romance as J. Lynn. Lol
I'm so glad you like them & I hope my controlled chaos makes you smile! 😂😂 After I read your comment, I began the daunting task of separating my Books I Want To Read list & my KU Books I Want To Read list! You inspired me! It will take a while though! HAHAHA inadvertent Jennifer LYNN Armentrout expert here!!!! 🙃🙃 Side note: DEFINITELY looking into J. Lynn books now!
You should do a thing where if you don't get an opportunity to grab a book from your 24 in 24 goal the next month 1-2 shelves go on a "Time Out". Their slot on your wheel is replaced with a "24 in 24" option. If that month you still don't get an opportunity to grab one of your 24 in 24 books, then 1-2 more shelves go on a "Time Out", etc. The moment you get to pick a book from that 24 in 24 goal you reset the shelves, everyone comes out of "Time Out" and you start it over.
Wow, mind blown 🤯 what amazing ideas & a great way to motivate me to stay on track with my 2024 reading!!!! I am DEFINITELY going to apply this!! Thank you!!!
Absolutely - I was pretty proud of myself! However, I REALLY thought that this would be a record breaking month because going into week 3, I only had three books left for the rest of the MONTH! Christmas snuck up on me! 😂😂
Ok good, I'm so glad I made that swap then! I'm a pretty chronological reader as it is just as a preference because I find that most books (even standalones) that are based in the same world has spoilers!
It was so fun to watch. So organized and yet still a little chaotic, loved it :) New subscriber here. So many good books - I loved Scythe and Serpent&dove, shatter me and from blood and ash are fun too :)
Organized chaos - my life! 🙃😂🙃😂 So happy you are here! Omg I'm obsessed with the fact that you've read most of my january tbr & can confirm that i'm in for a solid month of great reading!
LOL, the Kindle Spin Wheel. Look at the tiny font. Wow, 512 Book Prompts. Oh that's exciting I have Scythe and Shatter Me on my list to read this year. Happy reading!
My Tbr game involved similar to this. My daughter was excited when we did the new candy land tbr game since January she got one of my picks to pick one book to read since I didn't finish my tbr so she got two books to pick this month. I had to explain Magnolia Parks very nicely to a seven year old.
I hadn't heard of that Jennifer Lynn Barnes series - sounds like fun! I enjoyed the Inheritance Games series, so I'll be anxious to see how you think it compares to that. Her newest series sounds like it would definitely be my jam. I thrifted Scythe not too long ago and am really looking forward to it.
Neither had I! & then one day I was just browsing my way through B&N & spotted those on the shelf & thought "that can't be the same JLB!" & it was! Even though I was the biggest fan of the Inheritance Games trilogy (didn't mind the first one, but the second & third were a miss for me), I liked her writing style! Scythe sounds awesome!
It was a LONG process of compiling lists from other TBRs I've seen plus adding my own from my imagination! & even to this day, I'll be driving or doing laundry, etc., & a prompt idea pops into my head so I'll add it to the wheel! Some of them are pretty silly & vague as well, which helps! For example, literally every member of my family has a "picks" spot on the wheel (i.e. Dylan picks, hubby picks, aunt picks, dad picks, etc.), every color has a spot on the wheel for a colored cover pick. It adds up fast! 🙃🙃
Haha! I know, I know! It's an obsession 🙃🙃 I will say this though: I absolutely LOVE when my friends & family come over & borrow books from my little library! 💕
Just to avoid you going into it with the wrong expectations: pretty sure Scythe is more of a sci-fi and the romance is VERY marginal. I read it last year. Also, regarding what you said about the paperback of From Blood and Ash being uncomfortable to read because it's stiff, you can look up training book spines: it's a true game changer!
Thanks for warning me about Scythe! I actually have to confess: I DO go into books looooooooking for the romance sometimes 😂😂 so if I'm warned ahead of time that romance is a SUBplot, it helps me keep my expectations heading in the correct direction! Interesting that you bring up training book spines: I was actually looking into that! However, one of my "OCD" things is that I try to be VERY gentle with my books - I'm not a breaking in books kind of reader - I try to keep my books feeling as "new" as possible. So I'm nervous to try it! I did recently find a print of FBAA at Target that I've NEVER seen before (I don't know why they're reprinting it with a new cover again), but the good news (for me) was that it is a VERY floppy paperback edition! I grabbed it! 😍😍
I think the new additions to the wheel each month truly add to the randomness
I'm so glad you like them! It will help you keep track of what I actually SHOULD be reading too! 🙃🙃

Great start to the year. I loved Scythe, much more than I expected to going into it. Have a great month.
I've heard so many people say that about Scythe! The hardest part of today is going to be choosing what book to start with! 🙃🙃
This is so chaotic and I love it!
STORY OF MY LIFE!!! 😂😂😂💕💕💕
I love your TBR videos , i get so excited at what you will get chosen for you by Siri and your wheels.... Have a great reading month!! 🤩
I'm so glad you love them & share the excitement with me! They're my absolute favorite videos to make! 😍😍
I'm a series girl too. Definitely love the series prompt addition. Hopefully will help you tackle all the series the year!
Already one book down for my series goal for January!!!!! 💪💪💪💪 You too, girl! We've got this!
I look forward to these videos every month! Your bubbly personality really makes me smile ❤
The literal greatest compliment that could ever be given 💕😊💕 Thank you so much! I hope my organized chaos made you smile!!!!

yesssss!!!!!!!!!! **anxiously waiting** 😂🙃😂🙃
@@sheisbookedandbusy the video will be posted this week and I’m very excited to film it.
You could add two of each of the fun ones to your wheel to increase the odds of those coming up!
Funny you should say that because about halfway through the spins, I was thinking about it! Maaaaaybeeee next month!! 😊😊
Here we go! My favourite time of the month! 🍿
awww *blushing* I hope you embraced my organized chaos & laughed along with me!!!!! 💕💕💕
You are so funny 😂 you make me so happy just watching you 🥰 you talk with so much enthusiasm 😃
*blushing* It makes my heart happy knowing that someone smiles watching my happy chaos! 😍😍😍
Yes!!! What a fantastic start to Sunday! ❤❤
Hey girl hey!! Just starting Sunday with a little bit of Lyndsay chaos! 😂😂

The Wife Upstairs is a Jane Eyre retelling. Great line up of books on your tbr!
That makes so much sense!!! Thank you!! That makes me even more excited to read it!! 😊😊

11 books at Christmas time is ICONIC!
Absolutely - I was pretty proud of myself! However, I REALLY thought that this would be a record breaking month because going into week 3, I only had three books left for the rest of the MONTH! Christmas snuck up on me! 😂😂
reading serpent and dove first is the right choice !! there’s so many spoilers for the series in the scarlet veil
Ok good, I'm so glad I made that swap then! I'm a pretty chronological reader as it is just as a preference because I find that most books (even standalones) that are based in the same world has spoilers!

In the shadow hunter series it’s a bunch of interconnected series kinda like the MCU
Yesss, it's such a huge series! It intimidates me 😬
Happy new year
Happiest, most blessed new year to you & yours! Thank you for being here! 🌻🌻🌻🌻
So I’m wondering where you got 500 prompts!!! I need to add more to my game
It was a LONG process of compiling lists from other TBRs I've seen plus adding my own from my imagination! & even to this day, I'll be driving or doing laundry, etc., & a prompt idea pops into my head so I'll add it to the wheel!

It adds up fast! 🙃🙃
I'm pretty sure I have well over a thousand books on my kindle so I totally feel the struggle.
On the one hand, I'm happy for us...on the other hand, ugh!! 😂🙃😂🙃😂🙃
Girl 😭 how on earth did you accumulate so many books! You have a bookstore in your home 😂
Haha! I know, I know! It's an obsession 🙃🙃 I will say this though: I absolutely LOVE when my friends & family come over & borrow books from my little library! 💕
Which spin wheel app do you use?
Hi! Send me a message on Insta & I'll send the link over to you! 😊😊
I could never have a set number of books a month😂 too much pressure!
I hear ya! I try not to hold myself to it tooooo strictly & that’s why I never have “punishments” in my reading 🙂
Just to avoid you going into it with the wrong expectations: pretty sure Scythe is more of a sci-fi and the romance is VERY marginal. I read it last year.

You seem like a very nice person. 🥰
Right back at ya!!!! 😊😊
Omg that disgusting slurp at the beginning made me shut the video off.
Hahaha - It’s a sound effect!! I get it though, definitely not for everyone!! 🤣🙃
