I would have left within the first hour. 1:30 am is outrageous. Especially if you're busy and have things planned the next day! The longest I waited for a concert was an hour and a half and that was due to the stage having technical difficulties with equipment! (Three Days Grace, amazing concert!) Great tbr as always, and I love there's a new edition on the wheel! Happy reading!

This was my first video of yours and I love your TBR. As for Mistborn, it’s actually not that complex. The magic system is a little complicated but it’s explained very well. The writing is very accessible and the main protagonist is younger so it really is not intimidating to read.

I am new here, this is the first video from you that I am watching and I love it! First and foremost - HUGE KUDOS for creating this video on virtually no sleep and very low energy! Second, your organization and keeping track of all the spins is impressive and very cool! Lastly, the emoji spin is very cool and I might add it to my challenges! Atm, I have an alphabet challenge for English and Croatian alphabet where I need to cover all letters of both alphabets with book titles and a Reading The World Challenge where I keep track of all the books I read and the countries the books are based in or the author is based in :)

My best advice: don't be toooooo strict with it! Some of those emojis are sooo vague, so I give myself a ton of flexibility with it!

I read Mistborn in May, and you don’t need to worry. It wasn’t overly complicated. It had a great magic system and characters I’m still thinking about. I hope you enjoy it! The “controversy” around The Last Mrs Parrish is that some people think Freida McFadden’s The Housemaid is a complete ripoff of it. I haven’t read The Housemaid, so I can’t say. Loved The Last Mrs Parrish, though.

Still one of my favourite videos on your channel ❤ I would have loved to have seen future/editing you when going back through the footage once you had caught up on some sleep 😂 Cant wait to see Flip a Coin come up 🪙 "Pick an easy one for me" for emoji spin then get the cloud hiding the sun 🌤 I do love seeing how everyone interprets these differently. My first thought was a mystery/suspense set in summertime as where I live we get a lot of cloud cover/storms in the summer after a really hot day which gives mystery/thriller vibes but in a warm environment 😅 Also I know you started filming really late/early morning but your phone saying it was 1:25am and there were still 20mins of edited time left made me sleepy 😴 😂

[@sarasmith3676]

May I suggest an alteration? If there are any books you don't want to read (Frugal Wizard as an example), you can replace them with your other spinners that weren't chosen in the regular part of the game. This allows you to use your other spinners to get out of reading books you aren't in the mood for this month. Additionally, you should be able to double up in your extra spins. This will allow you to keep your numbers down, but still get books you are excited about.

[@sheisbookedandbusy]

I took my husband to go see Tool for our 18th wedding anniversary and we left like 30 minutes in because we were so cramped and hot and it was too much for our 37 yr and 38 old bodies lol

[@sheisbookedandbusy]

Now THAT is my kind of night 😂 Don't get me wrong, we had a blast, but it's two days later & I'm still recovering 😴

I don't finish every series I start in the same year I started it. I choose 1 series to have as my goal to complete in a year.

[@sheisbookedandbusy]

Definitely! Some series are near impossible to finish in a short amount of time! 😜

[@sailingqueen678]

My heart when I see Voyage of the Damned: Frances White Illumicrate Edition ignored for F author 😂

[@sheisbookedandbusy]

OOOO I missed that one! Is it good?! I might have to deviate from my TBR! 🤔

[@samsbookishfavs]

nothing could have prepared me for 1:30AM 😭

[@sheisbookedandbusy]

By midnight I was telling my husband that I didn't know how much time I had left before I fell asleep 😂 but I rallied & ended up having an absolute blast! 🎊

Pep talk for Mistborn: Brandy Sandy is essentially a middle school boy writing fantasy, you’re fine girl. Literally no shade to him, it’s just not that complicated. Everything felt very surface level throughout the entire series

[@sheisbookedandbusy]

I love this description! It made so much sense to me! Ok now I’m starting to be less intimidated! 💪🏻

[@bookswmadi]

My POOR INNOCENT EARS after listening to you read the synopsis of that Rebecca Quinn book. I don't even know if I can look you in the eye...

[@sheisbookedandbusy]

Hahahahahah it shocked me too! I’m sorry! 👀 😬

You won't have any issues understanding Mistborn. If there is one common criticism of the trilogy, it's that he explains how the magic works TOO much. I was a newbie to high fantasy when I read it, and I was okay. Just go with the flow and you will understand when Sanderson wants you to. It still stands as one of my favorite series ever. Don't let it intimidate you, you've got this!

[@sheisbookedandbusy]

That's super good to hear! Definitely makes me more confident in my ability to understand Mistborn! Ohhh so does it get a bit repetitive then?! That makes sense. One of your favorite series EVER?!? Oh my gosh, now I'm SO intrigued by it! 🥰

[@shannonquinn]

@@sheisbookedandbusy The plot isn't repetitive, but the explaining the magic system can be repetitive at times. Some appreciate that because it's helpful, some don't like that part as much. I noticed it but didn't mind too much. It's really only in the first book. I didn't notice much, if any, repetition in the second book. Enjoy!!

[@sheisbookedandbusy]

I was just about say that that sounds like it may be helpful! Especially in the first book when you're trying to get a handle on the magic, characters, worlds, etc. 💘

There's this really mean prompt that could give you a heart attack, but here goes: read a book to spell out your full/ first name.

[@skarrlettewinter6669]

Also, if you think 500 books on your Kindle is out of control you'd have an aneurysm if you saw the almost 15,000 books that are unread on mine.

[@sheisbookedandbusy]

Omg that would give me a heart attack for sure! But I love the challenge! 💪 15,000?!?! You’ve got me beat for sure!!

[@skarrlettewinter6669]

@@sheisbookedandbusy I like to have options and having a variety of books to rediscover that I own is always fun.

[@sheisbookedandbusy]

There is NEVER too many books! 😍

[@samreadsbooks_13]

I would have been so mad and demanded a refund if an artist made me wait that long. That's ridiculous. Ok back to the video.

[@sheisbookedandbusy]

On the one hand, I totally agree! But on the other hand, we were having a blast! 💕

How, how is a tbr video an hour long? What conspired here? 😭

I'm also 36 and have 2 kids and I'm tired just hearing you talk about your night out!!

[@sheisbookedandbusy]

I'm still recovering 2 days later 🤣

[@ladyking119]

You had a lot of tongue twisters during your spins this time around. You can look up the emoji's on google to see their meaning, so might help in choosing a book. I hope if you read the book on your spins, you should take those off the wheel, so other prompts, emoji's etc...get to be used. 🧙‍♂

[@sheisbookedandbusy]

It always challenges me when I'm at my most tired 😴 Really?! That's good to know & a good idea! I don't actually remove them off the wheel because the wheels take so long to format & make, butttttt I always reserve the right to respin if I decide it's repetitive 🥰

[@ladyking119]

@@sheisbookedandbusy that's a good idea

I would be so mad if my concert that was supposed to start at 9 didn't start till 130!!!!! No wonder you were so tired. That is unacceptable

Yesssss!! I was a little sad it didn’t come up this month but I know it will eventually & the plan I have for it should be fun!! 💕

[@bookswmadi]

My coworkers and I all dispise Colleen Hoover 😂. Our belief is, she's overrated, and there are so many better books people could be reading. But i guess... if it gets people to ead thats a good thing at least?

[@sheisbookedandbusy]

She's definitely not my favorite either...I haven't actually HATED anything I've read by her, but they've never blown my mind either...just kind of consistently mid for me. I could agree that she's over rated overall. Very true - any author that makes people read is a win in my book!

[@mbird5143]

You got it! Even though it didn't come up this month, I can't wait to get it in the future because my plan for it should be fun! 🤩
