I received this lovely award from two great bloggers – JoJo, from JoJo’s Bookcorner and Stacy from Stacy’s Place on Earth. I appreciate people taking the time to post awards like these, so I am passing it along. I am suppose to pass it along to seven bloggers and then write ten honest things about myself. Here we go:
1. Alpha Reader – This is one of my favorite places to visit. Every time I read her thoughts in a review, I always think – good point! Great, great site.
2. Fiction Vixen – I get review envy after reading her blog. I love the way she words things. Great new look too!
3. Leontine’s Book Realm – Full of awesomeness. Her reviews go into such depth – love it. Plus, she created the Beefcake Preview Club!!
4. Heidenkind’s Hideaway – so unique, such a fun voice. She can write so well – very informative, well though-out, and then she will slip something so funny in, you spit all over your laptop (or maybe that is just me).
5. Book Addict – Patti can put away the books – I swear she is a reading machine..great reviews too! Plus she made me my Tean Qhuay button. High Five to her!
6. Erotic Horizon – She may be Patti for number of books read ;) I love her reviews..she adds to my tbr pile ALL the time. She does several m/m reviews too, which I love.
7. Smokin‘ Hot Books – She makes me laugh and her reviews are spot-on. Very nice combo :)
Ten honest things about me – *clears throat*
1. I’m 5’8 tall. (is that too boring?)
2. I’m a CPA (and no, I don’t do taxes)
3. I like the way Anderson Cooper laughs (and I may be his stalker..don’t tell him)
4. I collect gnomes (my friends once stole my Travelocity gnome and took pervy pics of him throughout the country)
5. My favorite beer is Miller Highlife (it says it’s the “champagne of beers” on the can!)
6. My son broke up with his girlfriend in the cafeteria on Friday (he is in Kindergarten..he is five..help me)
7. Two of my closest friends live next door, and two doors down from me. (and their husbands are great friends with my husband.)
8. I’ve never been pulled over (probably just jinxed myself!)
9. I think Brandon Flowers of The Killers is hot (you know I had to work that in)
10. The most exciting news I have heard today – They are making an A-Team movie!
LOL, my son is 5 too and thankfully does not have a girlfriend yet, but his friend does. crazy. Congrats on the award
Congrats on the blog award, Mandi!
An A-Team movie?? Cool!!! :D I used to love that show!
elnice – Hopefully we are done with the girlfriends for a bit! He is five – how can he even know what that means?!? :)
Ava – I used to watch A-Team with my dad. Bradley Cooper and Liam Neeson are part of it. Yay!
Oh wow – Congratulations and thanks Mand! Every blog you mentioned is on my favorites list so I'm really honored to be included in that line-up.
5'8", huh? I'm not sure why, I thought you'd be shorter :)
(Glad you like the Team Qhuay button – I love lookin' at it!!)
Really? Is 5'8 tall?
I heard about the ATeam movie too today :) But for some reason bf has heard it way before
Congratulation Mandi – most deserved. ;)
Congratulations also to the recipients!
Best

Aw, shucks. Thanks for the award :)
A-Team! Best news ever!
Congrats on the award! You deserve it!
I'm 5'8 and I don't feel tall…
Congrats on the award! And same to the receipents. :)
I'd love to be 5'8"! I'm barely 5'2". My husband towers over me at 6'1".
I hope this doesn't sound too corny but I am so honored by what you said about me! I so want to be YOU when I grow up. Don't hold your breath waiting for me to grow up though. :)
5'8"? I so have height envy.
Looks like your future alpha male is getting a head start with the cuties. Doesn't want to get tied down too long.
You're so lucky that your BBF's live close by. Mine lives several states away and I miss her terribly.
And finally, thanks for the award. muah!!!
If I am the "grown-up" around here – we are in big trouble.
Oh Thankies!!!! I love this new list about you – CPA?!!!!! You never get over your fist love *shakes head* in Kindergarden, this boy dumped me while ON THE MONKEY BARS. To this day I'm still pissed. Your little guy needs some TLC or a PB sandwhich to help him through this "tough" time.
Woohoo Mandi! That is awesome! Congrats to you!
You are 5'8"?!! Wow! I am only 5'5 1/2" tall. So jealous over here!
You are also a CPA?!!! You are so multi-talented!
Aww….hope your son copes well. I agree with "Smokinhotbooks" above that he needs a PB sandwich. Ooo…I could for one right now myself. I need a hug.
Love your blog site!
Good morning Mandi…or at least it is mid-morning here. Congratz on the award and wow, thanks for passing it on to me. So it is confession time with this award…you just broke out my first smile of today with the image of your son breaking up with his girlfriend. I think it is just the beginning *eek*
And via twitter I heard about the A-Team movie..such nostalgia on my part. Last year i caught some re-runs and it was so '80 but loved watching :D
LOL, Congrats on your award. I believe you are the only person I know who collects gnomes. Thanks for the heads up on the A-Team movie.
Have a happy Sunday :)
Maybe I will post my gnomes one day or have one of them present my month's end list :)
I had three boyfriends in kindergarten and I'm still single. So I wouldn't worry about your son too much. ;)
Congratulations on the award, Mandi, and thank you for passing it on to me. That was a pleasant surprise. :)
