10. We are diving right into the Top Ten today with animal cracker naughtiness. I hope you can handle it. Link.
9. Yes, I’m obsessed with this book. So here are more details that I’ve found this week. From RT Magazine:
“There are others in the Fever World having the sex Dani’s too young for in Iced.” (Hooray for this! Is it Christian I wonder? Another of Ryoden and Barrons’ “friends?”)
Iced begins a week before Shadowfever ends, with chp 1 opening the morning after Cruce gets iced beneath the abbey. (I love that it is picking up exactly where the Fever series ends)’
“You haven’t seen the last of Mac and Barrons. Their most dangerous battles are yet to come.” (BARRONS. Want more.)
Karen Marie Moning also posted a short excerpt from Iced this week.
8. JR Ward is singing at the Barnes & Noble in Cincinnati at 2pm tomorrow to celebrate the release of Rapture. Most importantly,she has said on her Facebook that she will be answering Qhuay questions! So who is going and will tweet me all the details?? I will beg if I have to. ;)
7. Ilona Andrews has said book six of their Kate Daniel series (final one?) will be titled Magic Rises (out next year). They are also releasing some free fiction, called Innkeeper Chronicles, they are posting it chapter by chapter. Read it HERE.
6I just finished season one of Friday Night Lights. Obsessed. This show was made for me. Clear eyes, Full hearts, Can’t Lose! By the way, Riggins is mine. MINE. I claim him, y’all can’t have him. That’s just the way it is. Did anyone else wish you were his neighbor, when he started having that affair? Just me?
5. Sweet baby jesus Hugh Jackman. He is filming The Wolverine, the fifth time he has played this character. Do you think he getting better with each one? Is that photoshopped? Does it matter? *shakes head no* Just use those claws on us baby!
4. Joseph Gordon-Levitt may not be Channy Tay Tay, but I found his dance moves to be quite good on Saturday Night Live this past week. It also made me yearn for more nakey Channy. Also, my yearning makes me talk/type weird. CHANNY! NAKEY! LIKEY!
Magic Mike is out on DVD 10/23.
3. Warrior alert! David Goggins, a Navy SEAL (a real one! Not a fictional one!)attempted yesterday to do pull-ups for 24 hours straight, to both set a Guinness record and to raise money for the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. Dude – have you ever tried just doing one pull-up? It’s horrible. LOL. He took a break after 13 hours to eat a burger. He ended up doing 2,588 before he injured his wrist and couldn’t go any further. I say, well done David Goggins! I of course had to internet stalk him. I found this really great article about what he has accomplished HERE. Check out the videos at the bottom of that article too. You go David Goggins!
You go. (Thanks Pamela for the link)
2. I broke out the hot cider this week (Nom!) and now I think I’m going to make these with the kidlets this weekend. Recipe found at Full Fork Ahead. They look so cute!
1. I’m not jealous of y’all that has the iPhone 5. Really. I’m not. ;)
Happy Friday and have a great weekend!
Pull-ups for 24 hours? Waa? That is impressive.
I will share you Iced obsession. I am listening to the Fever series on audio right now in preparation. I forgot how much I truly heart Barrons. Sophia and I have shared many gushing emails over these books the past couple of weeks.
Oh, sex in Fever world…?! Ok, I was not fan of Dani, but those hot teasers and this sold me for Iced.
I must say that Ilona and Gordon Andrews have the best interaction with fans. They are just awesome. And Innkeepers Chronicles is great, love it.
As soon I saw Joseph Gordon-Levitt on SNL, I knew there will be place for him in this Top Ten. We, regulars, just know how your mind works.
Great Top Ten, Mandi!
What an awesome Top Ten! It has all my favorite things: Karen Marie Moning, JR Ward , Hot Men running & Halloween treats! I can’t get enough!!
Ok, so you know I’m overly obsessed with Karen Marie Moning. The ICED release & my trip (in 31 days, not that im counting) with the Moning Maniacs for the book launch party in New Orleans is all I can talk about (sorry if its annoying). Needless to say, I’m VERY excited for this book! I’m doing a re-read through the series right now and can I say, it never gets old! I can’t wait for this book & to meet Karen : D
Yes, who is gonna tweet Mandi about Qhuay so she can give us the scoop?!?!? Yay!
~Selena
…whhhhut?
No way, 24 hours? I hink I’d be happy to manage a minute
I am tired and can’t spell
I.need.Iced.
Did you hear sex Channing is opening a restaurant in Nola? Just in time for RT 2013?! Squeeee.
“sex” Channing???? You slay me!
Damn! Where did Joseph Gordon-Levitt get moves like that? When did he become so sexy? I guess I can no longer think him as the little boy from Third Rock from the Sun… Maybe they can use him for MM2. :)
Diana, I am so with you! After I saw 500 Days of Summer, I kind of developed a cougar-ish crush on him. After seeing that SNL clip, I’ve gone into full on lady boner mode. *whew*
I can not wait for ICED!! I am CRUSHED that I am not going to the book signing in Cincy tomorrow.
Great top ten Mandi! One of these days I’ll jump on the KMM wagon! (ducks head) I miss a lot not being able to stay up for SNL! Wow, quite the surprise in Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
I live in the north, but I saw you doing some Morris Dancing. That will do for now.
A camel and a cow together? wow. Did you eat them?
I really really need to finish the Fever series…
Rapture is on its way to my home, can’t wait to read it! I’m a big fan of the series, which is in my humble opinion, dare I typ it, better than the BDB which I also love.
NO! not the last Kate Daniels book, I want to read many more!
Have a great weekend you all!
As usual, your Top Ten Lists absolutely make my day/week. The JGL clip has now made me absolutely ineffectual to work. Also, I’m thisclose to pre-purchasing Magic Mike on Amazon. Finally, you gave me a naked, sweaty/oily, muscled Hugh Jackman in full Wolverine mode. Yeah, I’m done for today. Brain fried, mouth drooling.
