Wheel of TBR #217, July 21st

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 Apples Dipped in Gold by Scarlett St. Clair, Flashback by Iris Johansen and Roy Johansen, and I started Blood Orange by Karina Halle.

Binge Read Wheel:
For this month, the wheel picked Yearly TBR. I read Queen of Dreams by Kit Rocha, The Black Bird Oracle by Deborah Harkness, The Last Hour Between Worlds by Melissa Caruso, The Stardust Grail by Yume Kitasei, The Ruined by Renée Ahdieh, Betrayal Road by Christine Feehan, so I've read 13/9+.

Prompts Used This Week:
ARC To Be Published, Ebook, Adaptation, My Initials, Most Anticipated, Epigraph. 

ARC To Be Published-Yellow-The Wilde Trials by Mackenzie Reed-This book comes out in January and I got it from Edelweiss, so it hasn't been published yet!
