Katiebabs posted this and I just had to bring it over here. Hilarious!
I especially like how they’re slapping each other at the end.
I’m hoping to have my review of the movie posted at some point this week. Just FYI.
This has to be one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. I really like LD’s blog and the few books I’ve read by her were great, but even if this was the first time I’d heard of her, this video would make me want to check her out.
These videos are absolutely hilarious, but this one is probably the funniest yet. When Rosie and I had lunch last weekend (hee hee) she was telling me about it and I just had to share. That reminds me, I have something else to share with you that I got from my lunch with Rosie. I’ll do that tomorrow.
In the meantime..check it out.
Now check out Nora’s interview on Author Talk.

When I first started tossing around the idea of a Shomi spotlight, I emailed Marianne Mancusi (whom I adore and has guest blogged with us before) and asked if she’d be willing to guest again. I asked if she and Liz Maverick would be willing to talk about the Shomi line and encourage people who haven’t tried it yet to bump it up. Because they’re super cool, they did a video for us.
Liz and Marianne – Thanks so much!
Readers – Check out the vid and then bump those Shomi novels up to the top of your TBR piles. If I can do it, so can you. :0)

Mark your calendars, because Queen of Babble in the Big City, the second book in Meg Cabot‘s Queen of Babble series is being released in paperback from Harper Collins. It’s not secret that we here at Book Binge love Meg Cabot and we’re excited for this release.
Lizzie Nichols is back, pounding the New York City pavement and looking for a job, a place to live, and her proper place in the universe (not necessarily in that order).
“Summer Fling” Luke’s use of the “L” (Living Together) word has her happily abandoning plans to share a one-room walk-up with best friend Shari in exchange for cohabitation with the love of her life in his mom’s ritzy Fifth Avenue pied-à-terre. Lizzie’s landed a non-paying gig in her chosen field—vintage wedding gown rehab—and a paying one as a receptionist at Shari’s boyfriend’s father’s posh law firm. So life is good . . . for the moment.
But almost immediately her notoriously big mouth is getting her into trouble. At work she’s becoming too chummy with society bride-to-be Jill Higgins, inflaming the ire of Jill’s troublesome future mother-in-law. At home she’s made the grievous error of bringing up the “M” (Marriage) word to commitment-shy Luke. Once again joblessness and homelessness are looming large for hapless blabbermouth Liz—unless she can figure out some way to babble her way to a happily ever after.
Wondering where she gets her inspiration? Sometimes from her 8th grade journals.
This book is available from Harper Collins, May 20, 2008. You can pre-order it here or here in e-format.
But wait, there’s more!
Because on June 24, 2008 Queen of Babble Gets Hitched is being released in hardcover!!!
Big mouth. Big heart.
Big wedding. Big problems.It’s the wedding of the century!
Things are looking up at last for Lizzie Nichols. She has a career she loves in the field of her choice (wedding gown restoration), and the love of her life, Jean-Luc, has finally proposed. Life’s become a dizzying whirl of wedding gown fittings—not necessarily her own—as Lizzie prepares for her dream wedding at her fiancé’s château in the south of France.
But the dream soon becomes a nightmare as the best man—whom Lizzie might once have accidentally slept with . . . no, really, just slept—announces his total lack of support for the couple, a sentiment the maid of honor happens to second; Lizzie’s Midwestern family can’t understand why she doesn’t want to have her wedding in the family backyard; her future, oh-so-proper French in-laws seem to be slowly trying to lure the groom away from medical school and back into investment banking; and Lizzie finds herself wondering if her Prince Charming really is as charming as she once believed.
Is Lizzie really ready to embrace her new role as wife and mistress of Château Mirac? Or is she destined to fall into another man’s arms . . . and into the trap of becoming a Bad Girl instead?
