10. Happy Labor Day weekend everyone!!
Mandi is out of town so todays Top Ten is all about ME and MY thoughts, MY Wants, and MY needs.
As it should be.
9. Thanks to Jane from Dear Authors, I have now seen it all.
Someone to Cuddle. It’s gay cuttlefish shapeshifter erotcia. ZOMG!
Can you even say that with a straight face? I don’t even know what cuddlefish is. 0_o
While I’m definetly NOT taking one for the Smexy team and reading this,
I do recommend reading the reviews on Amazon for this book. I literally CRIED with laughter.
8. Jensen Ackles.
Is it bad I could totally see him as Christian Gray?
But is would have to be a silent film.
7. Another goodie from Jane at Dear Author.
Yes, I was totally stalking her this week.
Jane read it and commented on Goodreads that she felt like she was reading a grown up book. And she was correct.
Hydraulic Level Five by Sarah Latchaw is a romantic contemporary/Women’s Fiction that deals with the aftermath of a failed marriage between two high school sweethearts. When they see each other after seven years, the past becomes a tangle presence and they use their time together to finally address what went wrong. Humourous and tearful at times, the journey Samuel and Kaye take towards forgiveness was beautiful, emotional, and heartfelt. Review to come.
6. BEST.PRANK. EVAH!!

4. I think this is the best reaction song to a break up. Train’s 50 Ways To Say Goodbye.
I laugh everytime I hear it.
I think a lot of angsty “OMG HE LEFT ME” NA books would be well served by the heroine’s listening to this song.
3. The top WTF??? moment in the publishing world this week
goes to the rumor that former Teen Mom star turned porn star Farrah Abraham is writing an erotic book. 0_0
She claims it will give 50 Shades of Grey a run for it’s money.
Ummm, okay. You can read more about this HERE.
2. Fans of Maya Banks and her Colter family will be pleased to hear she has finsihed the last book in her Colter Legacy series-
Colters’ Gift.
Set to release November 5, 2013 though Berkley.
Blurb from Goodreads
New York Times bestselling author Maya Banks’ enthralling saga continues as two men, and one resilient woman hiding from the past, brace themselves for an emotional storm of unavoidable danger and unmatched desire
Lauren Wilder fell for the wrong man, trusted the wrong man, and she paid a very dear price for it. Now broken and wounded, she’s retreated to the bosom of the Colter family and the unshakeable love and support they offer. But the man she once loved and trusted is not without his own power, and he’ll use every bit of his money and resources to make sure he gets Lauren back, no matter whom he destroys doing it.
Liam and Noah were hired by Lauren’s brother to watch over her. But with danger looming, they head to the Colorado mountains—where Lauren has found temporary sanctuary. In her wounded eyes, Liam and Noah see the woman she once was—and could be again. They’re determined to show her everything a man can be—someone who will love her, cherish her, satisfy her, and when the time comes, put their very lives on the line for her.
1. Season 6 of Sons Of Anarchy starts September 10th on FX and I can’t WAIT!!
Season 5 left all the fans on edge as Tara was fixing to go to prison for her part in Otto’s murder of the nurse, Jax digging himself in deeper, and the club is falling apart, ripped from the inside out.
Here is a blurb from official SOA site on what we can expect from season 6.
Season Six begins with Jax’s leadership uncontested, but his family life suffering from his single-minded pursuit of John Teller’s vision. Jax must find a way to keep Tara from going to prison for conspiracy to commit murder while rebuilding his club and breaking from the cycle of violence and greed that ultimately led to his best friend’s death.
Opie. *sob*

Selena Mc says
I Can. Not. Stop. Laughing at the, “gay cuttlefish shapeshifter erotica”! Made my whole day :) Thank you, Tori!!!
Tori says
:) You are very welcome.
KT Grant says
I’d love to read Hydraulic Level Five by Sarah Latchaw but it’s P2P Twilight fan fic ala 50 Shades. Grrr.
I need me SOA fix STAT! I bow down to Katey Segal. She’s the cat’s PJs in that show.
Tori says
I know you hate p2p but the story is very good.
SOA!!! I can’t WAIT. I want Tara to rip Gemma a new one.
aurian says
Awesome post Tori! Is that why you named it Top Top instead of Top Ten? Lol. You have to applaud someone’s fantasy for coming up with Cuttlefish shapeshifters I guess. Or wonder why they are not committed.
Have a great weekend!
Tori says
LOL I swear, WordPress goes out of it’s way to make me look stupid. I even c/p’d Top Ten from an old post. *sigh*
Tori says
I give props to anyone who can make cuddlefish appealing.
Brianna (The Book Vixen) says
#6 was awesome!!
Tori says
I laughed so hard.
Paranormal Haven says
Whaaa?? Tara’s going to prison???? Geez, miss 1 season (more like 1 1/2) and sh!t gets turned upside down
Tori says
Oops. Sorry. :(
Helyce says
Excellent top ten T!!! Love the prank. Love #8! **wink** “silent film”. LOL!
As you know, I grew up in Hawaii. Cooked, dried, cuttlefish is eaten there. It’s stinky and salty, but goes well with beer. I’m sure I probably ate it myself in my youth, but absolutely could not touch the stuff now. Interestingly, they are pretty small, so a shape shifting cuttlefish is a tad unrealistic. Now if author went with giant squid……
Lori Toland says
I think I read a book like that once, twice or many times!
June M. says
I still can’t believe they killed off Opie!!! Can’t wait for more SOA!!!!
