    You are always the first one with the BOTM picks video up! 🙌 I love your promptness! Last month, I read the two books that you and your wife did, and liked them both. This month, I chose She Started It, The Wishing Game (love the cover! 😍), The Whispers, and The House Is On Fire. I was thrilled to see that BOTM is letting us ship up to 5 books now, but it certainly isn't helping my TBR decrease at all! 😬😂

      Thank you! 😁 I’m glad you enjoyed both books from last month! And yes! I meant to mention in the video that you can now choose up to 5 books but forgot 😔
      Hope you enjoy all of your picks!

    The add-ons sound better than the main picks. But I did select She Started It; just in the mood for a plot like that. Thank you! Great video.

    Just to clarify, Clytemnestra isn't just going after her king for "revenge" she is going after him for a much more important reason. She was married to the king, and, before the king went away to war he tricked her into sending their daughter to him. He told Clytemnestra that he needed the daughter for her wedding, but in reality he captured her and murdered her in cold blood. SO the story isn't just about "revenge," it is about revenge for a husband murdering his and his wife's child.

    Not that it has much bearing on the story (maybe just a couple trigger warnings), but in The Wishing Game, the main character isn’t orphaned- she just has terrible parents. She goes to live with her grandparents as a child because her older sister is sick.

    I think I’ve only skipped one other time in my year and a half of being subscribed to BOTM. This month just didn’t do it for me. I have so many books on my shelf so I decided to skip this month to allow me to focus on those books instead.

    • @dylancanread
      @dylancanread  Год назад +1

      I can definitely relate! It’s so much easier to buy books than it is to read them sometimes 😅
      I would have skipped as well if my wife wasn’t interested in a couple this month. Hopefully next month will have some better options!

  • @AlisaC1992
    @AlisaC1992 Год назад +3

    I am not super interested in any of the books this month although I am sure part of it is the 4 of the 5 options are debut novels don’t have much hype yet… I think I am going to go with Ink blood Sister Scribe. You can’t go wrong with a book about books right? And on the plus side it doesn’t look like it’s suppose to have a sequel which is rear for fantasy.

    • @dylancanread
      @dylancanread  Год назад +2

    I chose The Wishing Game. It sounds intriguing, but honestly I wanted to get an add on this month (and didn’t want to wait) - otherwise I probably would have skipped. I got A Fire Endless by Rebecca Ross as my add on. It’s the sequel to A River Enchanted. Did you or your wife read those?

    • @dylancanread

      Hope you also enjoy Lady Tan! The Hearts Invisible Furies was one of the first books I purchased through BOTM but, admittedly, I haven’t read it yet 🫣
