Making a TBR Card with a Jar: A Fun and Exciting Experience

I just wanted to prove it was gifted, I have a gift note right here it was gifted to me by the lovely Diana. Diana, your wish is coming true. We've gone into their friends, and what do you know? Maybe I'll read the whole thing so this right here is the result of our our lovely TBR jar so thank you to the TBR door for choosing these 10 books. I'm going to be reading in this panel of God knows how long maybe a month and a half to two months maybe a month if I'm feeling frisky but you know books, I do need to get to so it's not a lie.

I've put them into three tiers: the first tier has a rhyme of reason because I have safeties. Okay, in case I'm not feeling like any of these, I just put these ones down here because they sound good to read sometime soon. And so we've got a literal or our little like Spiral of safety books as well as the jar that has victimized me uh several times at this point um yes that's going on there and that's it. Look at it; it's so beautiful, and then behind it I just put books that I as you can tell by the bookmarks I've got commitment issues towards but that's a conversation for another time.

Uh, it's beautiful, and there's a cat down there for decoration as well. It's not real; it's like totally a fake one but it's it's something we've got something, and that's said friends; that's all I've got for you the TBR card is ready. It's looking beautiful, I love the fact that I have got safeties down there because I just wanted to fill it all up and like do the little row thing as well however it's it's really got no purpose and so at that point, it was just better to do a little ladder of safety books and things that I may just pick up in the future sometime soon.

As well as a little jar. I love it; I'm actually quite happy with it. And I'm not going to lie although I am immensely intimidated by what this TBR looks like even though I also have currently read books, it is intimidating as hell but it's a pretty stack. I really love the array of books that I will read sometime soon. Hopefully, I get to all of them in September if I don't know that's totally okay; I'm not being harsh with myself at all with the pace I am reading in or how I'm reading books and I do want to make an entire video like a reading Vlog dedicated to a TBR jar picks my books for like a week or something.

So, do let me know if you guys would want to see that as a follow-up to this video of making the TBR card with the jar because I think it's a nice little tool to have from now on whether I want to make a vlog on it or I don't know what to pick up or I'm making like a monthly TBR situation. So, do let a girl know about that if you'd like to see it and I'll definitely get to it if you guys do. And there's that; I hope you guys enjoyed the video love you all the most. Don't forget to give it a thumbs up and subscribe down below if you haven't done so already.

Also, let me know in the comments; do you have a TBR for September or a TBR for fall? Or however format you utilize a TBR and do let a girl know if there's anything you are excited and looking forward to having read. Do you have a TBR jar? I know a lot of people do like even just outside of booktube because a lot of people again love it as a tool to find their next read and have some sense of direction.

So, do let a girl know all of that in the comments; I am going to skedaddle full transparency and go read the natural so I'm already I'm already good I'm already starting I'm already on it if you ask me. If you want to find me anywhere else, I do have a podcast it's linked down below; it's called Talk and Talk and you can find that over on Spotify and apple podcast.

I am looking to upload it to other podcast platforms like Google podcasts and Amazon music and whatnot also thinking of perhaps sending a video element to it if you know what I mean. So, listen all things are possible we'll see what happened but we are officially back with the podcast linked down below alongside all of my socials and my patreon which I definitely suggest joining if you want to take part in helping me choose books for TBRs or just having fun sprinting and all of the good stuff love you all the absolute mostest and I will see you in the next one.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwe officially have a needy cat on our shoulder and a plan a few years ago I swore off anything TBR related I swore off TBR jars TBR games just simple lists anything to do with list making and telling myself I'm going to read all these things in a given month I swore off because I have to be honest I'm a mood Reader through and through I like the ability of finishing something and then going into whatever I want next however I am my own downfall Damascus sometimes I finish a book and I don't know what to pick up next and that sometimes becomes an issue because then I don't read anything at all for like a week or two because I don't know what to read and nothing really seems exciting and I don't have a North so what I am here to seek the one piece but maybe not the one piece what I want is a compass to give me some kind of North I just want a sense of direction when I'm feeling lost and that is where the TBR jar comes in the TBR jar has been around for ages like ever since I remember watching TBR videos the TBR jar has been there for years everybody's doing it and I'm joining the crowd a girl has never said she is anything but basic and we are making a TBR jar together because I actually asked you guys on Instagram to leave me all of your prompt recommendations I also ask my patrons to leave suggestions on which proms could be a good idea for a TBR jar and we are going to put them all together please hold in this jar that used to hold my coffee and now it doesn't because now it's empty even though I've washed this three times it still smells like coffee so you know it's a TBR jar with a hint television so we're gonna go to the office and we're going to write down a bunch of prompts put it in here and we're also on top of that going to remake redo my TBR card and we're going to also do it together based on the prompts that are here you can literally see Vin playing with the door in the background or I don't know if she's actually playing with like a little cat Mouse I have got journaling supplies that I have not used in a while I think it's due time to put them to good use I think personally it would be kind of cute to not use white paper because that's extra basic and instead I want to make it like extras better make it with some craft paper I think it'd look like super cute super cool and so I've pulled out my craft paper notepad which again have not touched in a hot second see I wanted to make this different by actually making the jar with you and I just realized that there's really like nothing interesting to talk about so let's get to writing let's start jotting some things down and start filling this baby up so that we have got some prompts in and then we can pull from this and make a nice little TBR card thank you it is a new day I have got my water filled up I have got a full TBR jar this is so full you guys please hold I did not expect to fill up this entire thing full of prompts but I did in between the ones that you guys provided on Instagram and then the ones that came up on patreon I have filled up this entire thing and I wish I could put more but I feel like this was already an excessive amount this is like three pages worth of the pad I showed you so I'm trying to figure out because I did see some other really good ones that I would have loved to put in here so I'm trying to figure out if what I should do is you know read the ones that I have picked out and not put the paper back in so that I can put in new prom so that I always have kind of like a new prompt a new thing to choose from but I don't know because the ones that are in here are really really good and I think they're Universal enough to the point that if I do pick out anything really I'd be able to fit a bunch of books from my shelves so we'll see what happens however the card needs to be fixed I can't move it too much because Vin is sleeping on the bottom tier at the moment the melchem is present and there is a cat in the bottom tier of the TBR card but this is basically what it looks like like it's just a mess it's got plushies as well and whatnot so we need to fix it up but I can't move it too much because I have got a baby currently so we need to grab everything off the TBR card and basically put it somewhere else and that needs like a space of its own so I need to figure out where on the shelves to put these in let's let's just pull out stuff card is empty officially except for Vin VIN is occupying a shelf but not much else we can do on that front but it's time I'm really scared because actually what happens is why I don't do TBR videos this is why I don't make TBR lists what happens if something comes up that I just don't want to read I'm sure I could make it work in my favor I'm already stressing not supposed to stress people listen I'm bending and snapping always like Ben and snap I can make anything fit in my favor okay I can't even mix this properly just because there are like so many papers it's like how do people fold these Universe I've got something right here this is book you bought oh while traveling I'm scared but that's not a bad one that's not a bad one okay let me just show you right here for accountability's sake book that you bought while traveling see I don't own a whole lot of books that I bought previous to me traveling this go around that I've gone to like Miami me in London I pulled out three options because I think it'd be good to start out with something that is not so dense the Godparent trap which is very similar to Life as We Know It the movie with Josh dumel and Catherine Heigl or at least it's supposed to be somewhat similar where the setup is that two people who are godparents end up having to be the legal guardians of a kid whose parents passed away and those are like the best friends except that these two godparents really don't like each other and essentially it boils down to them having to re-figure out how to structure their everyday lives and their lifestyle without having to take care of a kid I also got ridden in the Stars while I was in London and I think this could be a cute one as well it's a Suffolk romance about an astrologer who ends up fake dating somebody else I know part of the pitch is like a Pride and Prejudice meets Bridget Jones's Diary I don't love Bridget Jones but I do love me some good Pride and Prejudice and then the last one I picked out was stars and smoke by Mary Lou this is essentially about a pop star turn and secret agent slash spy and him having to infiltrate a super big criminal groom and through that how he meets the love interest who is a fellow agent will have to help train him and so any of these three books could be a good option I don't know why I'm leaning God Parent Trap so I think this is the first book I'm going to add to the TBR card because this honestly I love the movie I love Life as we know it I'm familiar with the concept and so if this book is anywhere near as good then I know I'm gonna love it I haven't even established how many of these I'm going to pull out but I guess my best course of action is to take out 10 of these papers and then use the second tier in the cart for books that I am still in the midst of what happens if I pull out T this is what I'm terrified of is I really want to read Words of Radiance but I'm terrified of me getting a prompt that alludes towards a Radiance because it's a freaking long book but let's see so I second paper first in a series I do not need to start right now we got it first in a series for this one I'm gonna choose the naturals by Jennifer Lynn Barnes no questions asked I don't know why I blanked because so many of the books that I'm either about to start or want to read sometime soon or that I'm already in the midst of which I could include for the TBR card our first books and series I totally blank the naturals by Jennifer Lynn Barnes people pitch this as like Criminal Minds but make it y a something about this is calling my name I did read The Inheritance games recently and I really really did enjoy it and I'm hoping that this one will be kind of similar I was talking to Liv because Liv loves this he was like listen just Vibes go into it with like vibey expectations and not anything like great but I know that it basically follows a group of teenagers that are recruited by the FBI each of them have their own specific skill set and they're like really gifted at it which is why they're recruiting the group cult I guess the naturals and the first book follows the case that they are working on which is a serial killer case and we see that through the eyes of Cassie apparently who's the main character one fell I will take that as a sign from the universe hands up in the air look I promise one did fall illumicrate book illumicrate book do I have anything that I have to read sometime soon that it's an illumicrate book I don't know see I included this prompt because I buy books through illumicrate and I also were subscribed to illumicrate for a while I was a rep for them and I have loads of their books that I have yet to read still to this day and so I wanted to make sure that I was kind of like incentivizing myself to read from the book box because Lord knows that I have too many unread of those books okay what happens if I do a fire endless this is the sequel to where River Enchanted by Rebecca Ross which basically follows the main character Jack as he is called back to his hometown to Aid in a case where little girls are going missing and the way to do that is through music and he is a music teacher he's very gifted at it and in this fantasy world music particularly the one that he performs is a tool and a way to communicate with the spirit and with the Gods like you know whatever they believe in and there's also like a Rivals to lovers Romance of a kind with Adera who is one of the leaders of the clan so it could be a Vibe I could borrow the audiobook for this because I know the audiobook for the first one was so good because the characters are Scottish and so the narrator has a Scottish accent it's like super good I am Diamond painting and so Diamond painting when I listen to an audiobook is quite nice and I do believe I could be wrong but I do believe this is a duology so if I read the audiobook I would be able to finish it out and this is an illumicrate copy are you thinking what I'm thinking I'm thinking we put it in okay great let's just put it in next up we have got prompt number four yes okay for prompt number four we're gonna do this one boo a romanticy oh no boys I think we got a problem oh no boys no I think I up I put this prompt in as a vision for the future not like a right now and I don't know that I have a lot of romanticies on my shelves does legendary count as a romanticy maybe I did ask on patreon I did ask on Discord and eight people so far had said that it counts as our romanticy so I will say that legendary count as a romanticy because I don't want to set myself up for failure I know legendary is one of those books that I could get through quite quickly and I have been meaning to keep on going with the caraval series because I really enjoyed caraval follow scarlet and Donatella who are sisters and their father is terrible and Scarlett has always dreamed of going to caraval which is like a performer Island situation and she's never gotten the opportunity to do so and so Donatella in an attempt to make Scarlett do something that she actually wants to do basically flees with scarlet and another guy and then Donatella was missing and it's a show and it's a great time and I'm super excited to see how legendary goes down because caraval had a twin that was so good that I just need to see exactly how that came about and exactly what happens from there on okay so for the fifth prompt we're halfway through friends let us choose this one I have like three on my hand and let us go for a fantasy book that gives me loads of freedom to actually choose whatever I want this is like a Cosby please please forgive me if you don't think this is fantasy please forgive me I'm going to put the bone season in here because I've been meaning to reread this for a while and now that the 10th anniversary revised Edition is here it's time I consider this to be like a cuspy of sci-fi dystopian fantasy I would argue there's like a little bit of everything in here but I don't know if it's classified specifically as a fantasy if you know what I mean maybe it is and I just don't know but we basically have a futuristic London a futuristic world really but it is particularly said in what they call cyan London the book starts in 2059 and we follow page Mahoney who is a clairvoyant there are different sorts of clairvoyancy in this world and it is illegal to be a clairvoyant it is frowned upon looked down upon even though it's not really something you can control and she works in the underground of cyan London and so she knows very well how to perform crimes how to do things how to hide how to make sure that she is not found for what she is and in the midst of everything she'll end up finding like a super secret society of like some really people and it's a great time I really enjoyed the first one but I'm dying to see how this like revised edition of the first book is going to go down and how much better it's going to get because getting like a dystopian fantasy book in 2023 with current writing everything I want for our sixth book I feel like I've gotten really lucky up to this point and I don't know when my luck is going to run out but let's go for number six or maybe the prompt jar will actually treat me kindly who knows highest rated on goodread needs oh see here's my problem my problem is that my Goodreads is not up to date with everything I own so everything I've bought in like the past year or so maybe a little bit over a year I don't think I have it on my want to reach shelf on Goodreads but for the sake of this video I'm scared it's probably going to be Words of Radiance what should be words of radiant and I'm gonna have a crisis watch I'm calling it right the now it's gonna be Words of Radiance I just know it in my soul it hasn't loaded yet scared it's got it's got to be it's either that or the mind series I don't think I'm gonna get anything other than those two I know myself I know see right there right there for your eyes only just to prove it and I'm gonna do it because I'm a responsible human being but just so that you guys see this Words of Radiance mindful series I know my shelves this is the universe's way of like urging me to actually read this book because I've been reading this for two years now I've restarted this book twice now and I actually did borrow the ebook quite recently on Libby so that I could actually get through it and not have to hold this chunker in my hands but this is a sick joke that's all I've got to say like here we go I'm putting it in because honestly I I don't have any excuse I I genuinely don't so Words of Radiance is going into the TBR and yes I'm gonna be pissy about it I am I will forever be salty that my first TBR jar made me read Words of Radiance watch me love it in the end you've been putting off oh God see here here we go you've been putting off a book I've been putting off see I'm Gonna Be Kind to myself with this one I am going to choose tomorrow times 3A for this one because it's a book that I am in the midst of so I am currently reading it I'm 102 pages in but I'm basically adding this because I have been putting off finishing it for such a long time now and I actually recently just got like the holographic paperback so maybe it's time maybe it's time this one is set to be a love story of A Kind without really having any romance it's more so a romantic tone between two people who have many shared life experiences and who have gone through a lot together and yet they never really come together in like a romantic relationship way we follow our main two characters who are game developers and they met when they were really really young and we get to see them through all stages of life when they are young and experiencing hardships and tragedy and then when they are young adults into adults as they develop a game together and and everything conflict wise and joyful wise that comes with that experience and so it's a really beautiful book I just have been postponing it because I know I'm going to cry and I'm so amazing three I never said I was going to read these in this fan of a month but so for our eighth book it's also thundering out there and it's like it's it's gonna be bad I just know it so we're not having a great time the light is also going down not a good time but for the eighth prompt similar Vibes to a favorite makeup palette my favorite makeup palette regardless of which one it is and I don't know that I could choose a favorite but my favorite one is the major Dimension palette by Patrick Taw it's a really beautiful palette you've got a mix of shimmers and then a mix of actual matte tones so it's quite nice I've got volume one and volume two I'm trying to like not get a glare because like it's bad but this one which is the second one if I'm not mistaken yes the second one is more like reddish pinkish tones while the first one has got more neutral tones but like it still has got like the reddish shade and the reason why I keep mentioning the red shades please hold is because I kind of want to add Immortal longings by Chloe gong I have got the Indigo Edition which is red reddish tones it's got gold both the palettes have a lot of gold and a lot of like Shimmer it's like bright it's out there it's Illuminating the way this was my Patron booklet pick for August and I have yet to read it we're also not going to talk about it but the live show is next weekend so I do have time yet to read it we're gonna make it work all I know is that it's another Shakespeare retelling it's Chloe gong's adult debut and I don't know much else about it because I've been keeping it that way because I don't want to know a whole lot I read like 18 pages of it and I do know we've got jumpers which is kind of similar to the Bone season actually where they can project their astral form and get into like another person's body and then they are able to control said body so it's interesting I just don't know what else is going to happen but I do know we've got like a Crown Prince and like a lost print says but let's go for number nine oh number eight number nine please hold one two three four five six seven eight oh number nine I'm missing two okay book that features Academia I'm not in the mood for a dark Academia from being honest so I'm gonna have to choose something that features some sort of Academia but that is not dark Academia could vesperidine fit for this well I guess in their version of like what this happens it technically could be academic Artemisia is training to be a greatest or training academy Academia a nun who cleanses the body of the disease so that their souls can pass on okay so I'd say it fits good sister lives says it fits I hope it's a good time I do have the audiobook for this as well so technically out of all the ones I have I already have like two audios but I think that's good to kind of get the load off the physical reading and I can do this while I Diamond paint and this actually is also the Lu fantasma booklet pick for August as well can you tell I read the books the month of the live show it's fine it doesn't matter but that's the book club I host over on patreon with Liv patreon is always linked down below by the way if you want to join us I would definitely suggest doing so because we're pretty cool prompt number 10. try to be dramatic there and I just think it did not look as dramatic as I expected it to gifted by someone oh okay technically I gift books to myself too because I love self-care I am looking at it I just don't know that it's a great idea but I'm looking at it should I add the Mind Fox here I see I I technically could just say like the first one doesn't even have to be all of them it could just be the first one and it's a 122 Pages let's do that and just to prove it it was gifted I have a gift note right here it was gifted to me by the lovely Diana Diana your wish is coming true we've gone in their friends and what do you know maybe I'll read the whole thing so this right here is the result of our our lovely TBR jar so thank you to the TBR door for choosing these 10 books I'm going to be reading in this panel of God knows how long maybe a month and a half to two months maybe a month if I'm feeling frisky but you know books I do need to get to so it's not it's not a lie do we need to go to them all right so this tier right here has a rhyme of reason but like at the same time like it's Just Vibe because I have safeties okay in case I'm not feeling like any of these I just put these ones down here because they do sound good to read sometime soon and so we've got a literal or our little like Spiral of safety books as well as the the jar that has victimized me uh several times at this point um yes that's going on there and that's it look at it it's so beautiful and then behind it I just put books that I as you can tell by the bookmarks I've got commitment issues towards but that's a conversation for another time and uh it's beautiful and there's a cat down there for decoration as well it's not real it's like totally a fake one but it's it's something we've got something and that's said friends that's all I've got for you the TBR card is ready it's looking beautiful I love the fact that I have got safeties down there because I just wanted to fill it all up and like do the little row thing as well however it's it's really got no purpose and so at that point it was just better to do a little ladder of safety books and things that I may just pick up in the future sometime soon as well as a little jar and I love it I'm actually quite happy with it and I'm not going to lie although I am immensely intimidated by what this TBR looks like even though I also have currently read books it is intimidating as hell but it's a pretty stack I really love the array of books that I will read sometime soon hopefully I get to all of them in September if I don't know that's totally okay I'm not being harsh with myself at all with the pace I am

that's not a bad one that's not a bad one okay let me just show you right here for accountability's sake book that you bought while traveling see I don't own a whole lot of books that I bought previous to me traveling this go around that I've gone to like Miami me in London I pulled out three options because I think it'd be good to start out with something that is not so dense the Godparent trap which is very similar to Life as We Know It the movie with Josh dumel and Catherine Heigl or at least it's supposed to be somewhat similar where the setup is that two people who are godparents end up having to be the legal guardians of a kid whose parents passed away and those are like the best friends except that these two godparents really don't like each other and essentially it boils down to them having to re-figure out how to structure their everyday lives and their lifestyle without having to take care of a kid I also got ridden in the Stars while I was in London and I think this could be a cute one as well it's a Suffolk romance about an astrologer who ends up fake dating somebody else I know part of the pitch is like a Pride and Prejudice meets Bridget Jones's Diary I don't love Bridget Jones but I do love me some good Pride and Prejudice and then the last one I picked out was stars and smoke by Mary Lou this is essentially about a pop star turn and secret agent slash spy and him having to infiltrate a super big criminal groom and through that how he meets the love interest who is a fellow agent will have to help train him and so any of these three books could be a good option I don't know why I'm leaning God Parent Trap so I think this is the first book I'm going to add to the TBR card because this honestly I love the movie I love Life as we know it I'm familiar with the concept and so if this book is anywhere near as good then I know I'm gonna love it I haven't even established how many of these I'm going to pull out but I guess my best course of action is to take out 10 of these papers and then use the second tier in the cart for books that I am still in the midst of what happens if I pull out T this is what I'm terrified of is I really want to read Words of Radiance but I'm terrified of me getting a prompt that alludes towards a Radiance because it's a freaking long book but let's see so I second paper first in a series I do not need to start right now we got it first in a series for this one I'm gonna choose the naturals by Jennifer Lynn Barnes no questions asked I don't know why I blanked because so many of the books that I'm either about to start or want to read sometime soon or that I'm already in the midst of which I could include for the TBR card our first books and series I totally blank the naturals by Jennifer Lynn Barnes people pitch this as like Criminal Minds but make it y a something about this is calling my name I did read The Inheritance games recently and I really really did enjoy it and I'm hoping that this one will be kind of similar I was talking to Liv because Liv loves this he was like listen just Vibes go into it with like vibey expectations and not anything like great but I know that it basically follows a group of teenagers that are recruited by the FBI each of them have their own specific skill set and they're like really gifted at it which is why they're recruiting the group cult I guess the naturals and the first book follows the case that they are working on which is a serial killer case and we see that through the eyes of Cassie apparently who's the main character one fell I will take that as a sign from the universe hands up in the air look I promise one did fall illumicrate book illumicrate book do I have anything that I have to read sometime soon that it's an illumicrate book I don't know see I included this prompt because I buy books through illumicrate and I also were subscribed to illumicrate for a while I was a rep for them and I have loads of their books that I have yet to read still to this day and so I wanted to make sure that I was kind of like incentivizing myself to read from the book box because Lord knows that I have too many unread of those books okay what happens if I do a fire endless this is the sequel to where River Enchanted by Rebecca Ross which basically follows the main character Jack as he is called back to his hometown to Aid in a case where little girls are going missing and the way to do that is through music and he is a music teacher he's very gifted at it and in this fantasy world music particularly the one that he performs is a tool and a way to communicate with the spirit and with the Gods like you know whatever they believe in and there's also like a Rivals to lovers Romance of a kind with Adera who is one of the leaders of the clan so it could be a Vibe I could borrow the audiobook for this because I know the audiobook for the first one was so good because the characters are Scottish and so the narrator has a Scottish accent it's like super good I am Diamond painting and so Diamond painting when I listen to an audiobook is quite nice and I do believe I could be wrong but I do believe this is a duology so if I read the audiobook I would be able to finish it out and this is an illumicrate copy are you thinking what I'm thinking I'm thinking we put it in okay great let's just put it in next up we have got prompt number four yes okay for prompt number four we're gonna do this one boo a romanticy oh no boys I think we got a problem oh no boys no I think I up I put this prompt in as a vision for the future not like a right now and I don't know that I have a lot of romanticies on my shelves does legendary count as a romanticy maybe I did ask on patreon I did ask on Discord and eight people so far had said that it counts as our romanticy so I will say that legendary count as a romanticy because I don't want to set myself up for failure I know legendary is one of those books that I could get through quite quickly and I have been meaning to keep on going with the caraval series because I really enjoyed caraval follow scarlet and Donatella who are sisters and their father is terrible and Scarlett has always dreamed of going to caraval which is like a performer Island situation and she's never gotten the opportunity to do so and so Donatella in an attempt to make Scarlett do something that she actually wants to do basically flees with scarlet and another guy and then Donatella was missing and it's a show and it's a great time and I'm super excited to see how legendary goes down because caraval had a twin that was so good that I just need to see exactly how that came about and exactly what happens from there on okay so for the fifth prompt we're halfway through friends let us choose this one I have like three on my hand and let us go for a fantasy book that gives me loads of freedom to actually choose whatever I want this is like a Cosby please please forgive me if you don't think this is fantasy please forgive me I'm going to put the bone season in here because I've been meaning to reread this for a while and now that the 10th anniversary revised Edition is here it's time I consider this to be like a cuspy of sci-fi dystopian fantasy I would argue there's like a little bit of everything in here but I don't know if it's classified specifically as a fantasy if you know what I mean maybe it is and I just don't know but we basically have a futuristic London a futuristic world really but it is particularly said in what they call cyan London the book starts in 2059 and we follow page Mahoney who is a clairvoyant there are different sorts of clairvoyancy in this world and it is illegal to be a clairvoyant it is frowned upon looked down upon even though it's not really something you can control and she works in the underground of cyan London and so she knows very well how to perform crimes how to do things how to hide how to make sure that she is not found for what she is and in the midst of everything she'll end up finding like a super secret society of like some really people and it's a great time I really enjoyed the first one but I'm dying to see how this like revised edition of the first book is going to go down and how much better it's going to get because getting like a dystopian fantasy book in 2023 with current writing everything I want for our sixth book I feel like I've gotten really lucky up to this point and I don't know when my luck is going to run out but let's go for number six or maybe the prompt jar will actually treat me kindly who knows highest rated on goodread needs oh see here's my problem my problem is that my Goodreads is not up to date with everything I own so everything I've bought in like the past year or so maybe a little bit over a year I don't think I have it on my want to reach shelf on Goodreads but for the sake of this video I'm scared it's probably going to be Words of Radiance what should be words of radiant and I'm gonna have a crisis watch I'm calling it right the now it's gonna be Words of Radiance I just know it in my soul it hasn't loaded yet scared it's got it's got to be it's either that or the mind series I don't think I'm gonna get anything other than those two I know myself I know see right there right there for your eyes only just to prove it and I'm gonna do it because I'm a responsible human being but just so that you guys see this Words of Radiance mindful series I know my shelves this is the universe's way of like urging me to actually read this book because I've been reading this for two years now I've restarted this book twice now and I actually did borrow the ebook quite recently on Libby so that I could actually get through it and not have to hold this chunker in my hands but this is a sick joke that's all I've got to say like here we go I'm putting it in because honestly I I don't have any excuse I I genuinely don't so Words of Radiance is going into the TBR and yes I'm gonna be pissy about it I am I will forever be salty that my first TBR jar made me read Words of Radiance watch me love it in the end you've been putting off oh God see here here we go you've been putting off a book I've been putting off see I'm Gonna Be Kind to myself with this one I am going to choose tomorrow times 3A for this one because it's a book that I am in the midst of so I am currently reading it I'm 102 pages in but I'm basically adding this because I have been putting off finishing it for such a long time now and I actually recently just got like the holographic paperback so maybe it's time maybe it's time this one is set to be a love story of A Kind without really having any romance it's more so a romantic tone between two people who have many shared life experiences and who have gone through a lot together and yet they never really come together in like a romantic relationship way we follow our main two characters who are game developers and they met when they were really really young and we get to see them through all stages of life when they are young and experiencing hardships and tragedy and then when they are young adults into adults as they develop a game together and and everything conflict wise and joyful wise that comes with that experience and so it's a really beautiful book I just have been postponing it because I know I'm going to cry and I'm so amazing three I never said I was going to read these in this fan of a month but so for our eighth book it's also thundering out there and it's like it's it's gonna be bad I just know it so we're not having a great time the light is also going down not a good time but for the eighth prompt similar Vibes to a favorite makeup palette my favorite makeup palette regardless of which one it is and I don't know that I could choose a favorite but my favorite one is the major Dimension palette by Patrick Taw it's a really beautiful palette you've got a mix of shimmers and then a mix of actual matte tones so it's quite nice I've got volume one and volume two I'm trying to like not get a glare because like it's bad but this one which is the second one if I'm not mistaken yes the second one is more like reddish pinkish tones while the first one has got more neutral tones but like it still has got like the reddish shade and the reason why I keep mentioning the red shades please hold is because I kind of want to add Immortal longings by Chloe gong I have got the Indigo Edition which is red reddish tones it's got gold both the palettes have a lot of gold and a lot of like Shimmer it's like bright it's out there it's Illuminating the way this was my Patron booklet pick for August and I have yet to read it we're also not going to talk about it but the live show is next weekend so I do have time yet to read it we're gonna make it work all I know is that it's another Shakespeare retelling it's Chloe gong's adult debut and I don't know much else about it because I've been keeping it that way because I don't want to know a whole lot I read like 18 pages of it and I do know we've got jumpers which is kind of similar to the Bone season actually where they can project their astral form and get into like another person's body and then they are able to control said body so it's interesting I just don't know what else is going to happen but I do know we've got like a Crown Prince and like a lost print says but let's go for number nine oh number eight number nine please hold one two three four five six seven eight oh number nine I'm missing two okay book that features Academia I'm not in the mood for a dark Academia from being honest so I'm gonna have to choose something that features some sort of Academia but that is not dark Academia could vesperidine fit for this well I guess in their version of like what this happens it technically could be academic Artemisia is training to be a greatest or training academy Academia a nun who cleanses the body of the disease so that their souls can pass on okay so I'd say it fits good sister lives says it fits I hope it's a good time I do have the audiobook for this as well so technically out of all the ones I have I already have like two audios but I think that's good to kind of get the load off the physical reading and I can do this while I Diamond paint and this actually is also the Lu fantasma booklet pick for August as well can you tell I read the books the month of the live show it's fine it doesn't matter but that's the book club I host over on patreon with Liv patreon is always linked down below by the way if you want to join us I would definitely suggest doing so because we're pretty cool prompt number 10. try to be dramatic there and I just think it did not look as dramatic as I expected it to gifted by someone oh okay technically I gift books to myself too because I love self-care I am looking at it I just don't know that it's a great idea but I'm looking at it should I add the Mind Fox here I see I I technically could just say like the first one doesn't even have to be all of them it could just be the first one and it's a 122 Pages let's do that and just to prove it it was gifted I have a gift note right here it was gifted to me by the lovely Diana Diana your wish is coming true we've gone in their friends and what do you know maybe I'll read the whole thing so this right here is the result of our our lovely TBR jar so thank you to the TBR door for choosing these 10 books I'm going to be reading in this panel of God knows how long maybe a month and a half to two months maybe a month if I'm feeling frisky but you know books I do need to get to so it's not it's not a lie do we need to go to them all right so this tier right here has a rhyme of reason but like at the same time like it's Just Vibe because I have safeties okay in case I'm not feeling like any of these I just put these ones down here because they do sound good to read sometime soon and so we've got a literal or our little like Spiral of safety books as well as the the jar that has victimized me uh several times at this point um yes that's going on there and that's it look at it it's so beautiful and then behind it I just put books that I as you can tell by the bookmarks I've got commitment issues towards but that's a conversation for another time and uh it's beautiful and there's a cat down there for decoration as well it's not real it's like totally a fake one but it's it's something we've got something and that's said friends that's all I've got for you the TBR card is ready it's looking beautiful I love the fact that I have got safeties down there because I just wanted to fill it all up and like do the little row thing as well however it's it's really got no purpose and so at that point it was just better to do a little ladder of safety books and things that I may just pick up in the future sometime soon as well as a little jar and I love it I'm actually quite happy with it and I'm not going to lie although I am immensely intimidated by what this TBR looks like even though I also have currently read books it is intimidating as hell but it's a pretty stack I really love the array of books that I will read sometime soon hopefully I get to all of them in September if I don't know that's totally okay I'm not being harsh with myself at all with the pace I am reading in or how I'm reading books and I do want to make an entire video like a reading Vlog dedicated to a TBR jar picks my books for like a week or something so do let me know if you guys would want to see that as a follow-up to this video of making the TBR card with the jar because I think it's a nice little tool to have from now on whether I want to make a vlog on it or I don't know what to pick up or I'm making like a monthly TBR situation so do let a girl know about that if you'd like to see it and I'll definitely get to it if you guys do and there's that I hope you guys enjoyed the video love you all the most don't forget to give it a thumbs up and subscribe down below if you haven't done so already also let me know down in the comments do you have a TBR for September or a TBR for fall or however format you utilize a TBR and do let a girl know if there's anything you are excited and looking forward to have you read any of these book and do you have a TBR jar I know a lot of people do like even just outside of booktube because a lot of people again love it as a tool to find their next read and have some sense of direction so do let a girl know all of that in the comments I am going to skedaddle full transparency and go read the natural so I'm already I'm already good I'm already starting I'm already on it if you ask me if you want to find me anywhere else I do have a podcast it's linked down below it's called talk and talk and you can find that over on Spotify and apple podcast I am looking to upload it to other podcast platforms like Google podcasts and Amazon music and whatnot also thinking of perhaps sending a video element to it if you know what I mean so listen all things are possible we'll see what happened but we are officially back with the podcast linked down below alongside all of my socials and my patreon which I definitely suggest joining if you want to take part in helping me choose books for tbrs or just having fun sprinting and all of the good stuff love you all the absolute mostest and I will see you in the next one\n"
