HOTTER than Summer BOYS, a Summer Wrap-Up Read-a-Thon Challenge

Happy Sunday everyone!!

Another week come and gone...pretty crazy right?!

Anyway, for today's Summer Wrap Up Read-a-thon Challenge I'm going to be rating all the super hot men I read about this year!! How fun!!

This challenge is hosted by A Book Lovers Review!
So I've read some really great books this year!  Anything from mysteries, adult-erotica (yes...I read Fifty Shades..guilty!), romance, teen, all the way to Christian YA (yes, I know fits perfectly with Fifty Shades, right?!)

Anyway, along the way I've been introduced to some pretty hunky men!  Some REALLY HOT MEN!!!

So here's the list of my top ten men from the book I've read this year:

This list is no particular order, so instead what I have decided to do is give them each individual awards!

So without further ado...

The List!

Award for Hottest Detective/PI:
COOPER CARTWRIGHT!!!
From Size 12 and Ready to Rock by Meg Cabot!

I LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH!!
Cooper is the definition of a manly man!  I love how he's independent, tough yet gentle at the same time.  He has a seriously kind heart, and loves Heather!  Super gorgeous man!! :)

Award for Hottest Navigator:

Rowan!!!
From Kirsten Hubbard's 2012 release Wanderlove!
Rowan was super hot in the sense that he was all into nature, loved traveling but to exotic places, and knew how to live on the bare minimum! 

Award for Hottest Outlaw:
Goes to...Joe Morelli!!
From Janet Evanovich's One for the Money!
Joe was super mysterious, tough manly man who just sounded soooo awesome!! So far in the series I am totally rooting for Stephanie and him to get together!! :)

Award for Most Mysterious:
Will Herondale from Cassandra Clare's Clockwork Angel!
Will Herondale is the definition of mystery!  I'm so excited for Clockwork Princess!!

Hottest Biker Dude:
...Rob Wilkins!!
From Meg Cabot's Missing You!
Rob is Mr. Dreamy! He doesn't take anyone's crap, and he's a perfect match for Jess!  I LOVED how this series ended! 

Hottest Athlete:
Henry from Miranda Kenneally's Catching Jordan!

Henry and Jordan were meant for each other from the beginning! I'd totally have sleepovers with him!! Lucky Jordan!!

Hottest Nice Guy:
Jem from Cassandra Clare's Clockwork Prince!

Jem is such a sweetheart! I am always looking forward to reading more about him and Will! :)

Hottest Mr. International:
Etienne St. Clair from Stephanie Perkins's Anna and the French Kiss!

Etienne is cultured, and with the added bonus of having a super cute British accent!! LOVE IT!!!

Award for Sexiest Tough Guy:
Jace from Cassie Clare's City of Fallen Angels!
Jace can be so complicating!  But at the same time a reader just can't help but love him too!

And lastly the Award for Sexiest Art lover...
Goes to...
Chris Merit from Lisa Renee Jones's if I Were You!

Chris is sort of freaky, but at the same time super mysterious and interesting! I enjoyed getting to know him a bit in If I Were you!

Alright everyone that's my Hotter Than Summer Boy Challenge post!! :)

Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

The Geography of You and Me by Jennifer E. Smith

Hey Everyone!! I am SOOO Close to my yearly goal of reading 50 books, that this is so happening this year!!!! ONE MORE TO GO!!! Anyway, this time around I read The Geography of You and Me  by one of my favorite authors, Jennifer E. Smith! From  Goodreads : Lucy and Owen meet somewhere between the tenth and eleventh floors of a New York City apartment building, on an elevator rendered useless by a citywide blackout. After they're rescued, they spend a single night together, wandering the darkened streets and marveling at the rare appearance of stars above Manhattan. But once the power is restored, so is reality. Lucy soon moves to Edinburgh with her parents, while Owen heads out west with his father. Lucy and Owen's relationship plays out across the globe as they stay in touch through postcards, occasional e-mails, and -- finally -- a reunion in the city where they first met. A carefully charted map of a long-distance relationship, Jennifer E. Smith's new novel

Marriage Vacation by Pauline Turner Brooks (aka Jo Piazza)

Hey Everyone! I finished another book!  I bought this one along with Shrill , when I found an Amazon Books store in NYC last week! I cannot believe I already finished both in less than a week, when I hadn't finished a single book since last July! From Goodreads : In season four of Darren Star's hit TV Land series Younger , the editors of Empirical Press are shocked and deeply moved when they read Marriage Vacation , an autobiographical novel by the publisher's estranged wife, Pauline Turner Brooks.  Knowing the book will cause a sensation, they decide they must publish it.  Now you can read what the hype is about. To find herself...she might lose everything. By all appearances, Kate Carmichael had the perfect life: two adorable daughters, a pre-war town house on the Upper East Side, and a husband who ran one of the most successful publishing companies in New York.  But when Kate attends the wedding of two of her oldest friends, and reconnects with succe

The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick

I saw the movie Hugo (directed by Martin Scorsese) right before the New Year.  Let me back track, and let you know that usually I am NOT a fan of Oscar movies.  If I'm being honest, I find them to be boring.  However, this year has seemed to bring quite a few more exceptions than normal.  Among those are: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 , The Help , and Hugo.   I fell in love with Hugo .  I thought it so beautifully done.  The music, the characters, the story.  I found myself crying even at points that wouldn't necessarily make you cry.  I honestly, didn't know the movie was based on a book; but when I found out at the end, I knew I had to read it. The winner of the Children's Caldecott Award, The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick is nothing like anything I've ever read.  Normally, when I read I imagine the story that I am reading  unfolding in my head like a movie; but with The Invention of Hugo Cabret I didn't have to imagine.  T
