Wheel of TBR #69, September 19th

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 chose Imagineer by Honor Raconteur, and I did read it! 

Of the books from the last week, I read Unknown by Rachel Caine and The Bronzed Beast by Roshani Chokshi.

Of the books from the monthly roll, I read When Sorrows Come by Seanan McGuire, so I have Queen's Gambit by Karen Chance, Mile High with a Vampire by Lynsay Sands, The Last Graduate by Naomi Novik, left.

For the rewards, and I have 1(+1)/4 needed for the next reward, so I have 8 rewards saved up.

Prompts Used This Week:
Retelling, Dobby Pick, RR Book.

Retelling-Azure-Learn My Lesson by Katee Robert-This book is a retelling of Greek Mythology of Hercules, Meg, and Hades as far as I can tell, so that counts!

Dobby Pick-Rose-A Dance With The Fae Prince by Elise Kova-I gave Dobby 3 choices, and this is the one he picked!
