Wheel of TBR #229, October 13th

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 Pimiko and the Uncharted Island by Forthright, Tell Me What Really Happened by Chelsea Sedoti, and I started A Grim and Sunken Vow by Ashley Shuttleworth.

Binge Read Wheel:
For this month, the wheel picked Yearly Goals. I read Rhomiko and the Confirmed Bachelor by Forthright, Serial Killer Games by Kate Posey, A Pirate's Life for Tea by Rebecca Thorne, Vera Wong's Guide to Snooping (On a Dead Man) by Jesse Q. Sutanto, The Wilderness of Wild Girls by Madeline Claire Franklin, Whispers Most Foul by Emma MacDonald, so I've read 9/9+.

Prompts Used This Week:
2022 Purchase, Goodreads Choice Book, Travel, Series Continued and Unfinished 2024.

2022 Purchase-Cyan-All Fall Down by Ally Carter-I bought this book in 2022, so I'll read that! 

Goodreads Choice Book-Violet-My Heart Is a Chainsaw by Stephen Graham Jones-This was a nominee in Horror 2021, so that works! 

Travel-Violet-What You Made Me Do by Barbara Gayle Austin-This book mentioned a Dutch family, so I'm pretty sure that it takes place somewhere in Europe! 

Bonus Spin for Violet-Series Continued and Unfinished 2024-Rose-The Hunt by Chloe Neill-I continued this series, but I still have 1 book plus this one left in the series, so if I don't read this one, or the next, the series will be unfinished.
