Wheel of TBR #127, October 30th

I saw Codie's Book Corner doing the Wheel of TBR, and I thought that sounded like a great way to pick what to read from your TBR. So thanks to her! I'll only do 3 spins, because I'm doing this every week, and so it won't make up my total TBR of the week, but it'll be a start!

Rules:
1. For each week of the month, I'll do 3 spins each week to read each week though I do have the rest of the month to read them. Once a prompt is used, I'll randomly choose one from the list, keeping track of how often a colour comes up. If colour comes up 3 or more times in month, I'll do another spin once it comes up 3 times.
2. If I don't read a book that week or at least start it before the end of the month, then for my next week of spins, I have to add a punishment for each book unread. I'll roll for each unread book, and have to apply each and every punishment chosen to the week.
3. Each month I'll get a prompt from my Binge Read Wheel (either specifically picking the prompt, or spinning the wheel) and I have to read at least 9 books, though I can read more!

Of the books from the last week, I read Ivory by Lola Dodge, Temptress by Lola Dodge, Terminated by Rachel Caine, and I started Killbox by Ann Aguirre. 

Binge Read Wheel:
For this month, the wheel picked Dying to Read. I read A Darkness At The Door by Intisar Khanani, Pestilence by Laura Thalassa, War by Laura Thalassa, Raven Unveiled by Grace Draven, How I'll Kill You by Ren DeStefano, Greymist Fair by Francesca Zappia, For the Wolf by Hannah Whitten, 
Reader, I Murdered Him by Betsy Cornwell, Finlay Donovan Jumps the Gun by Elle Cosimano, Leopard's Scar by Christine Feehan, so I've read 21/9+.

For this coming month, I chose ARC.

Prompts Used This Week:
Goodreads Recommends, Retelling, Steal a Book.

Goodreads Recommends-Orange-Awakening by Marjorie M. Liu-I was recommended this book in the Adult Fiction Genre.

Retelling-Blue-Strike the Zither by Joan He-This is a retelling of the Chinese classic tale of the Three Kingdoms, so that works! 

Steal a Book-Chartreuse-The Witch King by H.E. Edgmon-This might be stretching things, but it's a Club Read this month with Book Battle, so someone else is going to be reading it, so I'm counting it!
