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!
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.
I haven’t gotten my books yet but I’m definitely getting Ink Blood Sister Scribe and adding on The Wishing Game. They both sound really good and I love bookish books.
I picked The Wishing Game and read it today and loved it. I skipped this month because I'm trying to make it through my backlog and finances are tight.
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.
Thank you for sharing these books! I’m a huge Lisa See fan. Her Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane is my favorite book so I’ll be choosing that. Still reading Yours Truly! Also, going to pick up Elin Hilderbrand’s new book. Loved The Nantucket Hotel and Golden Girl. 😊
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?
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.
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!
Loved both of my choices last month; The Collected Regrets of Clover and The Last Word. I went with Banyan Moon. It does seem a little women story focused this month.
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.
Just finished The Wishing game - i loved it. (Am Also a Blake Crouch fan😊) I got Lady Tan BOTM for June and a 2017 histfic The hearts invisible furies as add on
I’m glad you enjoyed the wishing game! It sounded like a fun one! 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 🫣 Would love to hear your thoughts on it once you read it! 😁

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.
It does sound like a pretty fun story! I hope you enjoy it! 😁
Was here from when you were at 130 subs (just different account lol). Great job, video production quality has drastically improved.
Wow! I’m so sorry you had to see some of those early videos 🫣 lol
Thank you so much for sticking around! Your kind words and support means the world!
The Wishing Game and Banyan Moon are 5-star reads. I hope people don't sleep on those amazing picks. ❤️
I’m glad you enjoyed them! 😁
I picked Banyan Moon for my June pick. Can't wait to read it.
I got both!

Always enjoy your videos 🎉

Bookish books are the best! I hope you enjoy your picks! 😁
@@dylancanread Thanks!
I’m from The Bahamas and I chose “She started it”.
I hope you enjoy it!! 😁
Love the natural lighting
Thank you! I managed to record this one before it got dark! My time management usually isn’t that good 😆
I know what you mean about feeling like “not the target demographic.”
I’m hoping there will be a little more variety next month haha
Lady Tan! ❤ Lisa see !! I also added Five Star Weekend . So excited for this month !

Elin Hildebrand is always a classic beach read. Christina Lauren is hit or miss so I’d pass on that one.
I haven’t read either author but I’ve heard good things about both!

I hope you enjoy your picks! 😁 we haven’t read either of those but they sound great!

I’m glad you enjoyed last months picks! The Last Word was really intense!!
I hope you like Banyan Moon as well! 😁

Haha yes! Books about books (or writers) always have a leg up!
Hope you enjoy your pick! 😁

I don’t know want to choose this month… last month I got the Collected Regrets of Clover and I really enjoy it
I’ve heard a lot of good things about that one!
Whichever you choose this month, I hope you enjoy it! 😁
Enjoy your BOTM video! I chose She Started it and A Woman Is No Man.
Thank you! 😁 I hope you enjoy your picks!
Im upset the new Riley Sager one isn’t on there…. BUT I’m picking the wishing game
That would have been amazing! Hope you enjoy the wishing game 😁
I chose 5 books this month! Banyan Moon, Lady Tan, She Started it, The Wishing Game, and My Murder!
Nice!! I hope you enjoy all of them! 😁
