Wheel of TBR #57, June 27th

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. On the first week of the month, I'll do 12 spins, for books that I'll have all month to read. For each week for the rest 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 4 or more times in a month, I'll do another spin once it comes up 4 times.
2. If I don't read a book that week or at least start it, 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. On the other hand, for reward, if I go 4 weeks in a row making my TBR, then I have one opportunity  to have a grace on a book-if I haven't read it in the week or month I was supposed to, than I don't have to read it (though I'll still try and read it shortly thereafter). The reward can work for only one book. Which would prevent me from getting a punishment, but it takes 4 weeks to get a reward, so I'm fine with that. It evens out for me!

For my Mood Read, I read Clean Sweep by Ilona Andrews. I was watching a podcast about the series, and that urged me to reread the series, so I did, and that's a perfect example of a mood read, at least to me! 

Of the books from the last week, I read One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston, This Golden Flame by Emily Victoria, and I'm switching Prince of Thorns by Mark Lawrence out again with a book below that I've already read.

Of the books from the monthly rolls, I didn't read any, so I have A Conjuring of Light by V.E. Schwab, Witchshadow by Susan Dennard, The Nowhere Girls by Amy Reed, Lord John and the Brotherhood of the Blade by Diana Gabaldon, left.

For the rewards, and I have 2(+1)/4 needed for the next reward, and I have 5 rewards saved up.
