Wheel of TBR #274, August 24th

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 Toni and Addie Go Viral by Melissa Marr, Vampires, Hearts, and Other Dead Things by Margie Furston, and I started Bookshops & Bonedust by Travis Baldree.

Binge Read Wheel:
For this month, I chose ARC's. I read The Revenge by Hannah Jayne, We're Not Safe Here by Rin Chupeco, The Serpent's Bride by Kathryn Ann Kingsley, How to Fake a Haunting by Christa Carmen, How to Read a Killer's Mind by Tam Barnett, Dream by the Shadows by Logan Karlie, Murder in the Dressing Room by Holly Stars, so I've read 23/9+.
