We're back for more Bookmas! Today we will be doing the I'll Get Around To That Later Book Tag. I found this tag through Coynie Reads.

Welcome to Such A Fun Read! A podcast where we come together to read books and chat about them, like a book club! We will be diving in each week to chat about the books we love, the books people just can’t stop talking about, and how we deal with being book-obsessed.

1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000
Welcome back to Such Fun Read.

2
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:10,000
Today we have a book tag episode.

3
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,000
Another book tag episode.

4
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,000
There will probably be many more of these throughout this month.

5
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:16,000
Just FYI.

6
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:20,000
Also, I'm probably going to start doing every other day episodes.

7
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:25,000
Working full time and doing this every day is quite a bit.

8
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,000
Plus, it doesn't really give me much time to read.

9
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,000
So every other day you'll get a new episode.

10
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:35,000
The book tag I'm doing today is the I'll get around to it later book tag.

11
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,000
I do not know who created the tag.

12
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:43,000
I saw a video from Coiny Reads and she didn't know who created the tag either.

13
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,000
If I end up finding the creator, I will link them.

14
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,000
But let's get into the questions.

15
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:50,000
Question one.

16
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:55,000
A classic book that you've been meaning to read forever but haven't read yet.

17
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,000
I honestly could name a few books here.

18
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,000
I really could.

19
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,000
There are quite a few classics that I have on my shelves, but I haven't read them yet.

20
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,000
And I really want to read them.

21
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:10,000
I guess I'll start off by saying any of the Jane Austen books that aren't Pride and Prejudice.

22
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:15,000
Because Pride and Prejudice is the one Jane Austen book that I've read.

23
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,000
Emma is at the top.

24
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:21,000
And I really, really, really need to read Emma.

25
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,000
Question two.

26
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,000
A book on your shelf you haven't read yet.

27
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,000
Which one?

28
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,000
I honestly have quite a few.

29
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:35,000
And we'll see if it ends up being one of the books I was actually quite surprised that I had.

30
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,000
Because I definitely forgot that I bought it.

31
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,000
So the book I just picked out was Waiting for Tom Hanks.

32
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,000
Who wrote that?

33
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,000
Carrie Winfrey.

34
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,000
Yes, this is a book that I...

35
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,000
Oh, it has a sequel?

36
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,000
So it's a rom-com.

37
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,000
Oh, maybe I'll read this next since I just pulled it out.

38
00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,000
It's a rom-com.

39
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:09,000
So a rom-com obsessed romantic waiting for her perfect leading man learns that life doesn't always go according to a script in this delightfully charming and funny novel.

40
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,000
Maybe I'll read this next.

41
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:11,000
It's a rom-com.

42
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,000
So am I in the mood for a rom-com?

43
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:18,000
Anyway, that answers the question for a book on my shelf I haven't read yet.

44
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,000
And now I kind of want to read it.

45
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,000
Hmm.

46
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:23,000
We'll see.

47
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,000
Question three.

48
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,000
A book you recently got that you haven't read yet.

49
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,000
So recently, I decided to buy some dark romance books.

50
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:38,000
I haven't read them yet, but I'm always interested in knowing what the fuss is about with something popular in the book world.

51
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,000
I bought three of them.

52
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:48,000
Hooked by Emily McIntyre, Lights Out by Navesa Allen, and of course, Haunting Adeline by H.D. Carlton.

53
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:57,000
I don't know when it is that I will get to these, but they are here for whenever I am in the mood to figure out why this genre is so popular.

54
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,000
Question four.

55
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,000
A book you've had forever, but haven't read yet.

56
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,000
I have quite a few of these.

57
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Hmm.

58
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,000
I don't think I can choose this one.

59
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:10,000
I've had the City of Brass on my shelf probably since it came out.

60
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,000
Just looked that up and that book came out in 2017.

61
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,000
The Young Elites by Marie Lu.

62
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,000
I'm looking at that book right now on one of my shelves.

63
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,000
Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel.

64
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,000
I see the trilogy, the entire trilogy on my shelf.

65
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,000
Blood for Blood by Ryan Groudon.

66
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,000
I forgot I had this book.

67
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,000
I really enjoyed the first book in this duology Wolf by Wolf.

68
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,000
That one I definitely need to read soon.

69
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,000
When did I get All the Lights We Cannot See or The Nightingale?

70
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:43,000
I've had those for quite some time too, and I'm sure if I continue to look over at my shelves,

71
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:48,000
I'm going to find other books that I'm like, wow, when did I even get that?

72
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,000
So let's move on to the next question.

73
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,000
Question five.

74
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,000
A book a friend recommended that you haven't read.

75
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,000
I don't know if I have an answer for this one.

76
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,000
I can't think of one right now.

77
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,000
So recommend a book to me.

78
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,000
Leave me a comment with a book recommendation.

79
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,000
If I own it, I'll add it to the top of my list.

80
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,000
Question six.

81
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,000
A book you're procrastinating on.

82
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:17,000
Probably some of the classics, the Jane Austen books, also Dracula and Frankenstein.

83
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:22,000
Those are ones I wanted to read sometime this year, mostly around October, and I didn't.

84
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:27,000
If I do end up making a T-Berry list for 2025, they will probably be on it.

85
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,000
Also, A Game of Thrones.

86
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:33,000
I've seen the show and I have started this book.

87
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,000
Have the other books in series as well.

88
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,000
I'll get to it one day.

89
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,000
I'll get to it.

90
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:41,000
Also, also, Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Free.

91
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,000
I read Fifty Shades of Grey earlier this year.

92
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,000
I also did an episode on it.

93
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,000
I'll link to that in the description if you want to check it out.

94
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,000
I want to do an episode on each of the books.

95
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:55,000
It might be February again before I do it around Valentine's Day, but I will get them done.

96
00:04:55,000 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaking of wanting to do episodes, I need to read Catching Fire and Mockingjay.

97
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,000
Those will be rereads.

98
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:06,000
I've read those already, but I want to do episodes on them since I did an episode on the

99
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,000
Hunger Games.

100
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,000
I'll link to that one as well.

101
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,000
Maybe I should make a plan and stop procrastinating.

102
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,000
Question seven.

103
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,000
The next book on your TBR.

104
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,000
I don't know.

105
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,000
Maybe it's going to be Waiting for Tom Hanks.

106
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,000
I don't know, but I really don't know yet.

107
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:25,000
I think I'm going to do a mini reading on this weekend just to see how much I can read.

108
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,000
I haven't picked the books yet.

109
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:32,000
Maybe I'll see what books I have that are popular online and see if they're worth the hype.

110
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,000
I don't know.

111
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,000
We'll see.

112
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,000
And then question eight.

113
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:37,000
Tag some people.

114
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:38,000
I tag you.

115
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,000
If this is a book tag you would like to do, go ahead and do it.

116
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,000
Let me know and I can watch it or listen to it.

117
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:49,000
Or if you want to, you can answer the questions in the comments down below.

118
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,000
And that was the I'll get around to it later book tag.

119
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,000
I had fun doing that book tag.

120
00:05:53,000 --> 00:06:00,000
Also reminded me of some books or at least a book that I want to read soon.

121
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,000
But thank you so much for listening.

122
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:07,000
Don't forget to subscribe so that you don't miss new episodes and we'll speak soon.
