hey guys it's abi from autumn of pellinor  and today i'm telling you my
september tbr
so if you watched my august tbr video
you'll know that i did an a to z
tbr going through the whole alphabet bar
a few letters that i didn't have books for
and trying to read one of every letter i
did not get the whole way
through that in fact i reached h
so obviously essentially this is the
rest of the a to z but i don't think i'm
gonna manage that if you don't know i
just started a new job it's full time
and i have to go into work
we're socially distanced but it's still
not fun um
and so my reading has really dropped off
quite a lot but
i'm still going to try and get through
as much of this as i can so this is
basically
what i think i'll actually get through
what my aim is and what my stretch goal is
so let's get into it obviously the next
book
on my a to z list would be heir of
fire by sarah j
maas this is not the next book that i
want to finish so what i
expect that i can finish by the end of
the month
will be in the midst of life there is
the chance that i will
[stutter noises] that i will have actually
finished this
before august is out i am 176 pages into
it and it
is like 400 pages long it is doable i'm
filming this on saturday
so it's just about doable but i don't
know and
i have been enjoying this one i really
enjoy jennifer worth's writing if you
don't know this is the same woman who
wrote call the midwife if you're
british you 100% know what that is if
you're american
trust me it's beautiful and you will cry
the bbc did an amazing adaptation it's
beautiful
so this should be a quick read it just
depends on if i find the time to get to it
i have a friend coming up this weekend
it's a bank holiday weekend here in the
uk and she's coming up from the south of
england and we're going to socially
distanced
me up and i get to meet her parents and
actually just spend some time with her
so i will be staying safe i will be
staying two meters away
but i will also be busy so i cannot
guarantee that i will finish this before
the end of the month so this is the
first and only book i
need to finish in september because work
is difficult and i really need to try
and find some sort of balance so
yes this is the one that i need to get
to by the end of september my goals have
dropped massively so then next
up is heir of fire it's big i don't
think i'm going to actually sit and go
through it it's like 600 pages long
and i'm just not in the mood for it
right now, so yeah
the next book would then be kidnapped by
robert louis stevenson
this isn't too long it is small writing
and it is a classic but it's 200 pages
so take me if the small writing was
bigger probably take like three hours to
get through
hopefully i can read this one this is
within my actual tbr goals for the month and then
the last book within my actual tbr goals is
lost boy by christina henry this one
also isn't too big and it's an amazing
fantasy i adore christina henry's
writing
so i really really hope that i can blast
through this one
did i say what they were about no i
didn't i said what in the midst of life
was about
heir of fire is the third book in the
throne of glass
series i almost said trilogy which is
basically about a badass
female assassin in a fantasy world then
kidnapped i have no idea what it is
about
someone is kidnapped to be carried away
to the americas after narrowly escaping
being murdered by his uncle
and they're on a ship that is
shipwrecked off the coast of scotland
it's a classic i didn't read what it was
about before i picked it up
and lost boy is a dark retelling of
peter pan
by christina henry which is kind of what
she does so really excited for this one
then i have my stretch tbr so there are
four more books in the alphabet
i want to reach up to this just after
halfway point
as my stretch goal so the first book is
moriarty by anthony horowitz i read
uh what is it called the house of silk
by [stumbles over words again]
anthony horowitz which is the first book
in this duology i believe
it is a sherlock retelling i don't
really need to say any more than that
you guys i'm sure know what that kind of
entails
so this one should hopefully be a quick
read the writing is quite large
then one that i think will be where i
get stuck is nevernight by jay kristoff
the reason i think i'm gonna get stuck
is because unlike the last one the
writing in this
is tiny but this is again about a
female assassin there's a theme here
um and she's 10 years old when she
starts to do her thing
um i don't really know much more i just
hear that it's awesome i've heard bad
things about the author
but i did not purchase this it was
gifted to me and also it does sound
really good
so i do really want to read this and
then once i've read this
i will then decide if i want to continue
with the series and if i do how i'm
going to be
getting my hands on those books whether
it'll be library or second hand and just
kind of how i won't be buying them
firsthand, unless he improves you never know
but yeah then we have other words for
smoke by sarah maria griffin
this uh again i just picked up i don't
actually know what it's about
damn dude because i read [stumbles over words AGAIN]
spare and found parts by sarah maria
griffin
and i really loved it that was about a
girl who built herself a friend
in a post-utopian world
it's really cool um this one i just knew
that i loved her writing and knew i had
to pick this
up some people disappeared and there was
a weird cat
and it's mystical and magical that
sounds pretty good
it's also reasonably short it's 300
pages so it's not too bad
so after nevernight this will be
quite nice and then the
last book on my stretch tbr for
september is prodigy by marie lu
this is the second book in the legend
series and
oh how do i explain legend it is a
dystopian a ya dystopian um about a
world where there's like a ruling class
and then an under class
and we see from different points of view
i've been away from this for a while
leave me alone
um but yes so this is a little bigger
but it also should be quite a fun read
and that's that it's really simple this
time there's not
too much i say there's not too much
complexity as i avoid reading the first
book that should be on this tbr
and also may have finished the only book
that i want to finish
in september before september starts it's a
bit of a mess
but it's fine that's my life right now
so let me guys know
let me guys know you guys need to let me
know...
what you're reading in september and if
you have read
any of these books let me know what you
think of them i know that
kari from caring for books
oh my god i've been away for so long i
forgot your it'll be in the
description i'm so sorry kari, kari
gifted me this
and i know she's read it so i know that
she loves this
obviously that's why she sent it to me
thank you again i love you
and i'm sorry for forgetting your
channel name i'm atrocious so
yes i know that she's read this and that
she's really
like into this so i'm excited for that
but i also want to know if any of you
guys have read the other books what you
think of them
and if you think i should force myself
through them to try and get to whichever
book
you recommend i also know that kari
likes um
heir of fire i know she likes the throne
of glass series so
like leave me be it's like a chunker of
a book all right i'll get to it when i can
but yes this is my
very messy september tbr and i'm glad
that i made
this alphabet tbr because it means that
i have
something there to kind of get myself
through so even if i don't read them
at least i know like what to pick up
because sometimes that can help me and i
can deviate from the tbr if i want to
like if i decide to not follow this then
it's fine but yeah
it's been a while since i've filmed can
you tell i had pre-filmed some stuff
for the start of work so that i didn't
have to worry
and then realised that i only pre-filmed
enough for one a week
when i was doing two a week but then
that's probably better to switch to one
week anyway
everything's a mess thank you so much
for watching despite this being an
absolute fucking shit tip
and hopefully i will be able to kind of
get my reading back on track
um if you watch my august tbr which
comes august tbr? august wrap up which
comes out tomorrow you'll see that i did
a decent amount of reading before i
started work and then it just all went
to shit
once i started going to a job so
yeah the adjustment period for that is
going to be interesting
but we'll see we'll see how it goes
so yes thank you so much for watching
guys and i'll see you next time
bye, it would help if i didn't just sit
and play video games all day
but like leave me alone
