One of our mottoes here at the Saucy Wenches Book Club is that reading is sexy, and just the other day I thought why not combine that with one of the topics that we Wenches really, R.E.A.L.L.Y., appreciate... the man candy.
I had no doubt that it would be very easy to find a-lo-hawt of that with some online researching - which I was willing to do, you know, for the greater good and all that *wink, wink* - and I figured that it wouldn't be that hard to pick out some eye candy for the occasion, but boy was I wrong. It turned out that I had more, way, way more, than enough material to choose from. It was arousing...ly hard I tell ya!
Take a look after the jump to see a small preview of the candy that caught my eye and ear...
... psst, I'm so not going to tell you which ones I've actually seen before and ogled at for x amount of time... for hours months.
And it's exactly how David Tennant demonstrates the proper way to read a book.
Doesn't he just make it so damn adorably cute and attractive at the same time!??
Charlie, Charlie, Charlie, now you're just deliberately messin' with us ladies.
Meet Sam Heughan... or a character he's playing anyway... although, I'm sure he needs no introduction. I'm guessing most of you know him by now, especially after he was cast in the role of a certain Jamie Fraser from Outlander. And Sam or no Sam, in character or not, he sure is a man candy plus he's reading so I say he qualifies. Period.
And he might not be reading from a book at this particular moment, I admit, but I couldn't pass up the chance to share this hot little tidbit which is both... educational... and sexy as hell. And mind you, there are more lessons like that where this came from. As if you didn't know that already...
Not only is it enjoyable (to put it mildly) to see him read but listening to him read is just to die for. Seriously, if you haven't seen and listened to this before I highly recommend that you do so now. If you have seen this before, I'm pretty sure you wouldn't mind listening to it again... Ps. eye- and earporn alert!
This is just... have you ever... I don't think I've... I mean... I can't even...
Me too Benedikt, me too.
Wait, oh my gosh! I wonder if it means that we're soulmates!?
If Tom Hiddleston's reading wasn't the death of you, Benedict reading Ode to a Nightingale by John Keats might just be. Gawd, I mean, seriously guys, there is just SO much earporn!!
Now, if you'll excuse me *coughs*, my dearest, saucy, readers, I need to stop now and recover, but if you're up for some more sexy reading by Benedict check out his Flat of Angles reading, written by Simon Cleary, it's in 4 parts and so delicious and so... well, just listen... in private.
Did you enjoy this as much as I did? Do you sometimes do your own man candy + reading is sexy research just to get a "liiiittle" bit of that luscious eye- and earporn? Sound off below!
Sweet baby Jesus, ladies- you have excelled your good selves. Colin, Sam, Jeremy frickin Renner- and Pascal the chameleon?! �� Perfect antidote to a veeeeerrry long Monday afternoon.
Created by Olga Daniels What better way to prepare for the impending release of the next Black Dagger Brotherhood novel, Lover at Last by J. R. Ward, than to relive some of our favourite scenes in the previous books?! Some of these scenes were selected by multiple Wenches, others are just personal favourites. One is. Clearly. The. Wench. Favourite. It won't be hard to tell which one! After the jump, see which scenes made us ooh, ahh, and pant for more.
Or How I Learned to Stop, Smell the Pig Shite, and Fall in Love with the Fifth Book in Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander Series A young White Sow dreams of all the food she’ll be eating to grow into her role in this book As the wait for the new Outlander book and television series drags on (and oooooonnnnnnnnaaaarrrggghhh), many fans have been rereading the first seven books in the series. Fascinating online discussions abound as to the motivations of the characters, the nuances of meaning within various scenes, and future possibilities and foreshadowing. Amongst enthusiastic effusions about all things even remotely associated with our beloved series, I’ve seen one recurring subject of complaint. People like to pick on The Fiery Cross . “It’s too slow.” “It doesn’t have enough action.” “Where’s the mystery?” So during my recent reread, I set out to take a few notes about memorable moments. But I gave that up early on. There were far too many. Because the book was like a beautifu...
A SUPER Spoilery Discussion of Feversong by Karen Marie Moning by: Zee the Terrible and Barbara Bones By Olga. It's now been two weeks since we got our hot little hands on Feversong , the final book in the Mac & Barrons part of Karen Marie Moning's Fever series. It's almost all we can talk about in the Saucy Wenches hallways (which is really online, but you get the drift) and we have lots of thoughts and opinions so we aren't putting off our Super Spoilery Recap Extravaganza any longer! Zee told you about how much she loved it in her Wench review, here , and it will surprise exactly no one that Barb did, too. Loved it to pieces. Thought it was pretty much perfect, exactly the kind of conclusion KMM has been promising us since she gave us Iced , leaving everyone precisely where they need to be. That said, we have lots and lots and LOTS of thoughts. So come with us through the jump where we're dishing all the dirt, in filthy, spoilery detail. We menti...
Giddy with anticipation for the release of Karen Marie Moning's Iced , a lot of the Wenches have been thinking about Dani "Mega" O'Malley, the young sidhe -seer we first met in Bloodfever , who is poised to step out of the shadows behind Mac and Rowena and take center stage. Though Moning has recently said the three books she is writing for Dani will continue the story we've been following in the Fever books, the POV will shift to reveal the next chapters through Dani's eyes. With our heads firmly buried in Shadowfever in a frenzied effort to finish our rereads before the new release, we Wenches have been wondering what's in store for Dani. But no one has wanted to stop reading long enough to write a proper tribute to our young heroine as she prepares to take the leap to leading lady. Though we all think she's pretty awesome and deserves a big ticker-tape parade to show our support. So a sneaky Wench tried the stealth approach and asked us...
When I read Annihilation last fall, I was intrigued, repulsed, mystified, enchanted, horrified, compelled, absorbed, and ultimately so unable to articulate what had happened that I didn’t attempt a review. But it has never stopped growing on me, new insights twining around in my brain. It’s insidious. Then the movie happened. I. Had. To. Go. I didn’t think anyone could film the book, and I was on Cloud 9 when I saw the abundance of rave critical reviews. It got compared to Apocalypse Now and 2001: A Space Odyssey ! It got called “stunning” and the “Best Sci-Fi Film in Years” that “ranks among great philosophical sci-fi”! And though there were many differences from the book, it sounded almost as batshitcrazybrilliant as the book!! Which means there are now two equally haunting versions of this story for me to wonder WTF happened. I might not have all the answers, but I’ve certainly enjoyed replaying scenes in my mind and pondering the possibilities. And I suspect that’s...
