Has she nothing better to do Who cares what they think, this book is sooo good, read some more God she is looking and whispering with her friends now damnit why are they laughing at me, WHY? Right back away slowly from the kindle This conversation lasted the whole hour, don't get me wrong, it has its advantages, I always have plenty of room at my lunch table as no one wants to sit next to the girl who has weird convulsions and I can always get to the front of the queue, and now I have no friends, I can get much more done in my spare time!
Okay, now less about my traumatic lunch time experiences and more about the book. I loved it, much like the first one is was hilarious in a foul mouthed sarcastic way, which I adored, whilst still managing to have a sweet love story at its core. I liked that this book was after the HEA of the first one, showing that just because they have said their I-love-yous doesn't mean to say that their lives are now perfect, they still have insane friends, strange families and a 4 year old with a mouth like a trucker, as well as their own foibles to contend with.
This was a fantastic read definitely one of my favourites for this year, I am not sure if this series continues after this book or not, but whatever Tara Sivec brings out next you can guarantee I will be reading it. This book picks up two months after the end of Seduction and Snacks and Carter, Claire and Gavin are settling in with being a family. Things are going well and the business is doing great but that doesn't mean everything is smooth sailing. If you loved Seduction and Snacks , you will love this book. The same humor and outrageousness from Gavin and Drew continue but Claire really outdid herself in this one.
After Liz and Jim's wedding, Claire catches the marriage bug big time and she thinks Carter This book picks up two months after the end of Seduction and Snacks and Carter, Claire and Gavin are settling in with being a family. After Liz and Jim's wedding, Claire catches the marriage bug big time and she thinks Carter is horrified to get married but Carter has been trying to propose to her forever. This leads to sooo many hilarious and extremely embarrassing moments!!
I still love Carter and Claire. They are just perfect for each other. From the "phone calls", to the bus sex, and finally the milk pong I just loved every moment of it. I'm just really sad that it's over. We get caught up with everyone but I felt there was a lot more of Jenny and Drew in this one. I kind of missed Liz! But of course, Gavin, is the star of the show. He has sooo many great lines! There's a great epilogue that will make you very happy but like I said earlier, I'm just sad that it's over. I wanted to get down on my knees and beg you to never leave me. And I should have done it.
I should never have waited this long. There is no one else in this world I could imagine spending my life with. I want to teach inappropriate things to our children with you forever. View all 27 comments. Gavin has a daddy noq and loves living with both of his parents. It's now time for Claire to meet Carter's parents, but every opportunity leads to an unfortunate event when Claire is either drunk social posting or playing the equivalent of food softball in the house. Lots of misunderstandings, miscommunications and pot cookies, cause a bit of strain in the relationship.
And of course Gavin and his precocious mouth. Drew and Gavin fight light little kids, which is funny since Gavin is and Drew isn't He threatened my wiener. He's lucky I didn't throw down fisticuffs with him. And just because he said 'juice bag' doesn't mean we don't both know what he was really thinking. That kid is an evil, evil genius, and I never want to be left alone with him.
He's so nervous about it that Claire suspects that he may never want to marry her, which she never really considered until after Liz and Jim's wedding. With them both jumping to conclusions and not communicating, hilarity ensues.
Futures and Frosting has ratings and reviews. Librarian's Note: this is an alternate cover edition - ISBN Carter, Claire and Ga. Buy FUTURES AND FROSTING on KINDLE (Amazon). 4 stars. I don't think any author has ever made me laugh as hard as Tara Sivec has in.
It's rare to get through more than two pages without breaking out in full on belly laughter. I can't wait to read the next book in the series. It wasn't as funny as the first one but it's still hilarious! This little kid is just so hilarious. He's the reason why I'm continuing this series. I swear, the funniest kid I've ever encountered in a book.
If you love Tangled by Emma Chase, you will enjoy this one. Oh, sweet Jesus I have never laughed so hard in my life!!!! I embarrassed myself in the carpool line, the grocery store, and even in front of my own children as I had random bouts of hysterical laughing to the point of tears as I read this. I think people are probably under the impression that I've gone mental as they watched me staring at my iPhone guffawing like a lunatic, practically peeing my pants.
But that's okay, because I freaking loved it!!! I apologize in advance for anyone opposed to Oh, sweet Jesus I have never laughed so hard in my life!!!! I apologize in advance for anyone opposed to cursing, because you pretty much need to stop reading now I'm not sure what I love more about Tara Sivec's Chocolate Lovers series; the insane characters, the incredibly crude and obnoxiously hysterical behavior, the raunchy sexy banter, or the sweet love story behind all of the hysteria!
Yes, if you were to do a word search in this book for the words 'vagina', 'dick', 'ass', or 'balls', I fully believe every page would pop up in your search. Futures and Frosting was all about Claire and Carter trying to figure out their relationship while they live through the mania that is their lives.
They're sharing a life together with Gavin, they're in love, they're blissfully happy well, okay, other than the fact that Claire may very well pull a Lorena Bobbit on Carter if he keeps waking her up snoring like a buzz saw. Carter is head over heels for Claire and wants to commit to her, but a series of goofs and near-misses find him wondering if Claire really wants to be with him. Yep, I know, I was sitting there screaming "have you heard of something called communication??!! After all is said and done, though, you're just sitting there hoping the insanity will get out of the way and Carter will wake up and realize Claire doesn't need all the bells and whistles, so they can have their amazing HEA!!
How can you even think about cereal? Shit, is my forehead sweating? Is she looking at me right now wondering why I look like a chubby man with a heart condition who just ate his weight in chicken wings and Jell-O salad at a buffet? That's not a good look to have when you want the woman you love to look into your eyes and pledge her undying love by saying 'yes' to marrying you. And that's when they aren't drunk. Add to their already loopy personalities copious amounts of alcohol, and they're plain bat-shit crazy!!!
And that's exactly why I absolutely love each and every one of them!! I love Drew and Jenny with their immature, horny-as-hell raunchiness, Gavin and of course Claire's parents-who knows which one of them is actually more outspoken, but there is clearly no 'off' button or filter for their mouths, and of course my absolute favorite, Claire and Carter for their adorably inappropriate behavior that makes them two parts of one whole crazy person!!
They're perfect for each other, just as their family and friends perfectly fit the vagina mold of their life!! It won't stop being tall. I take that back. THIS is the happiest moment of my life. My son just got a boner for Sopranos," Carter whispers. Some of my favorite moments: Seuss to his contact list.
This series is just awesome, and Tara Sivec is an absolute genius. If everyone had a friend like her in their lives, there would be shiny happy people all over the world!! So when I was sitting at home and found out is was released early I squeeeed like a freak, dropped everything I was doing and immediately dived in. I'm happy to say that this book was just as fanfriggentastic as the first one!!! It was flipping hilarious. I found this book to be a perfect continuation from Seduction and Snacks!
Carter and Claire are completely amazing together, their relationship gets tested along the way, with individual insecurities, and their family and friends also continue to play a big part. Gavin is even more funny in this book than the last! The kid is incredible! There are still tons of unbelievable one liners that have you giggling like a school girl.
Some of my fav lines in the book "Did you see that? I cunt hear you. Let's see if I can finger it out," - Carter "Mommy and Daddy make a lot of noise when they kiss. Mommy talks to God a lot. If you've read Seduction and Snacks and loved it, then this book is a no brainer!!! Don't wait, buy it and start it!
It's one of the BEST. View all 9 comments. This book, it made me happy down to my dumbo eared vagina. I had some stalker tendencies before when it came to Tara, but now I want to stalk everyone she knows so I can find out who the characters are based on. With all the weekly serial books out there, this would blow them all out of the water teehee, I said blow them.
It was hands down, the funniest book I ever read, so funny that, uummm….. I had an incident with slippage…. Well Tara surprised us with the sequel two weeks early. On an already busy weekend, I dropped everything to start this book and immediately began cracking up…. She has since fixed that! Thank you from the bottom of my vagina. The chapter names even made me laugh! Here are a few: Claire and Carter are working on melding their lives together, living together with Gavin. I figured it would soften him up to the note I placed next to the box telling him if he left the toilet seat up one more time and my ass got an involuntary bath at six in the morning I would put super glue on the head of his penis while he slept.
I had even signed the note with a couple of Xs and Os. Who says romance is dead? I even have some candles left, see? So this party bus also had a bathroom, in which a completely shitfaced Claire and Carter went together, and the rest of the bus heard: While there, she discovers that she had a wonderful night of drunk facebooking the evening before.
Claire, with her drinking should NOT be on Facebook! They are so perfect together. Carter is trying to propose to Claire but something keeps happening to stop him. He loves her so much and and it is clear she loves him too, but her parents were pretty bad examples of marriage.
In fact, Claire is obsessed with watching wedding shows on TV, but covers it up by letting Carter think she is obsessively watching porn.
Amidst all this, we have the ever so charming Gavin. Gavin is just turning five, and I swear, he is the coolest kid ever. Scary thing is, my family is going to think I wrote this book, because my son IS Gavin! My kids were hysterical, so much so that my 7 year old got carried away, pulled down his pants and started rubbing his wiener on his brother while I laughed though I tried to yell at him.
Big brother kind of stopped laughing at that point…. But seriously, I think Tara has placed a hidden camera in my home for some story inspiration. I think my favorite quote may be: If have a t-shirt for when you are around people like that: This book was so filled with zaniness, and I learned a whole bunch, like google is never wrong, you only have to eat a little of a pot cookie, seriously?
I also learned more about sports: Jenny and Drew need their own book s. I literally had to put the book aside because of chest and rib pain a few times. You need to like over-the-top, raunchy silliness. I loved every second of it.
Personally, I think you all need to get your floppy vaginas online and buy these books. View all 10 comments. I am in loooooovvvveeee with Tara Sivec. Seriously, I need us to be best friends. Just by reading her novels, I can tell that she is one of the funniest people on this planet. I mean come on Seduction and Snacks and Futures and Frosting are hands down two of the funniest novels I have ever read in my entire life. To write something that funny, you have to be that funny. Meeting Tara Sivec is definitely on my bucket list.
If you've read this novel, then I think you understand why that is. The only reason I didn't add 50 quotes to this review is because I didn't want to ruin any of my favorite parts for people who haven't this book yet. Well, and also because that would take A LOT of time.
I highlighted almost half of the book. I recommend Seduction and Snacks and Futures and Frosting to everyone over 18! Thank you Tara Sivec for the best ab work out ever! My abs are sore today from laughing so much last night. I'd much rather read than do crunches so I need you to keep the novels coming. P Each and every line in the book has something so fucking witty that it cracked me up. All their friends are bat shit crazy! I'd give a limb to have such mental friends.. Loved them Clair's parents are loons.. The book is fucking Hil-larious!! Beyond amazing and bloody hilarious: D Just this morning while he slept, I had left Carter a box of his favorite candy next to his pillow—Globs: I figured it would soften him up to the note I placed next to the box telling him if he left the toilet seat up one more time and my ass got an involuntary bath at six in the morning, I would put super glue on the head of his penis while he slept.
Another fabulously funny book in the Chocolate Lovers series. All I can say is that if you haven't read these books yet and are looking for more of a romantic comedy emphasis on the word comedy then this series is for you. Here are two of my favorite parts, but there are so many in this book you will just have to pick it up and have a good laugh for yourself! And when Carter's Mom got them a dog Gavin just keeps moving and laughing. It looks like a freaky version of the locomotion dance.
Carter runs over and pulls the dog off of Gavin by its collar. View all 22 comments. Prepare to Green Fart while rolling on the floor laughing. Sivec ends this series with a lot of Vagina Hand applause. From lock doors phone call while talking to God, epic fail proposal, and C-section delivery, means start to finish you'll laugh ou Mother Fucker Amazing!!!
From lock doors phone call while talking to God, epic fail proposal, and C-section delivery, means start to finish you'll laugh out loud. Gavin is on my top list fave.
Don't as me why or I'll punch you, or fart you on the face. She is my dream come true, my life, and my everything. Does it really matter if I plan the perfect proposal in the world and spend weeks trying to come up with just the right words? She isn't the type of girl who cares about that stuff and i know it. Asking her to be my wife and grow old with me that's what matters. Walking up every morning next to this woman and tucking my son into bed every night is all that I care about. Claire and Gavin are my whole world". How is it possible for this second book to be just as funny as the first?
Wow, this was just as hilarious even more so at other times than Seductions and Snacks. I want to meet this author in real life, she has to be the funniest person ever. Two books that have me crack up laughing thats just awesome. As much as I am a huge fan of Claire, I loved her so much in the first book she just cracked me up Anything from his pov was just lol convulsing How is it possible for this second book to be just as funny as the first?
Anything from his pov was just lol convulsing giggles for me. All the proposals and times with him and Gavin just had me dying. If you haven't read either of these fantastic book please please read them! Now that deserves an applause!!! Tara Sivec Seduction and Snacks was absolutely great and I was not sure whether the second book in the series was going to be equally entertaining but I could't me more wrong.
If you haven't started this series yet I have one question I'll give you Now that deserves an applause!!! If you haven't started this series yet I have one question I'll give you 2 minutes, head over to amazon and get your hands on these books and I promise, you will View all 6 comments.
Futures and Frosting by Tara Sivec This book is so funny! Gavin was cuter than ever! I talk to God sometimes too. I'm eighty-four percent positive our child is going to be born a pot head. It's going to come out with dreadlocks and wearing a Bob Marley onesie. Its first word will probably be 'Whaaaaaazzzzzzzuuuuuup'. It's never, ever going to sleep through the night because it's always going to have the munchies.
In a completely unrelated topic, have you seen my shotgun? Such a great way to end these wonderful books! Can't believe this second book was as funny as the first one, Tara Sivec really knows how to keep the humor in every sentence. I fell in love with every character, I even ended up loving Drew and Gavin? That kid never ceases to amaze me. Futures and Frosting is one of the sweetest and funny books I have ever read, the "milk-pong" part had me bawling like a baby. I love you because everyday you amaze me. I love you because you're the best mother in the entire word. This time, I needed you to know every fact about why I love you.
I wanted to marry you the first time I saw you again. I wanted to get down on my knees and never leave me. I want to teach inappropiate things to our children with you forever. Claire Donna Morgan, will you please, please marry me and love me for the rest of your life? You gotta love Carter. If you read Seduction and Snacks you should totally read this book, it's a sweet, hilarious, hot and lovely HEA and you will enjoy it as much as I did! I loved 'Seduction and Snacks' - it was sassy, hilarious and plain ol' good times.
Tragically, its followup, 'Futures and Frosting', was absolutely awful although it would seem I am solidly in the minority on this one. I found the "humor" was immature, OTT and cringe-worthy - and the story was just one uncomfortable situation after another. In fact reading this was very much like trying to find the "Benjamin Wu balls" amongst all the inappropriate crap: View all 11 comments.
They have been living together for a while, still in love, but trying to get used to being together as a family, and get used to each other. Again, a hugely funny, light-hearted romantic comedy book, with a cast full of characters you cannot help but love. If you can suspend your disbelief, do not mind the foul language and are ready to just go along for the ride then it will be one of the funniest books you read.
Yet, it is heart warming, the love between Claire and Carter is great and the entire group of friends all care about each other in a way that is lovely to read about. Oct 31, Desi rated it liked it Shelves: Igual tiene sus partes divertida con Gavin La parte de Carter intentando por 2da vez proponerle matrimonio a Claire Following on from the stomach-achingly hilarious Seduction and Snacks , this book carries on all of the ridiculous, vulgar hilarity that we loved the first time around. Claire and Carter are back with the always brilliant Gavin, and their friends and families.
We get to see Carter and Claire moving forward with their life together, and even though they had a few communication issues, they are so obviously crazy in love and have such fun together, I loved reading their story mixed POV too — big plus!!! Thanks so much for the laughs Tara, and for the perfect conclusion to a great story!! I loved Seduction and Snacks pretty hardcore, so I was thrilled that I didn't have to wait long for Futures and Frosting.
This book continues on with Claire and Carter living life, for real. Claire and Carter are now settled in the real world of a relationship. The hearts and flowers are still there, but the day to day routine of what life is like as a couple sets in. Of course, they are still wildly in love, but it takes some adjusting. Then, they ea I loved Seduction and Snacks pretty hardcore, so I was thrilled that I didn't have to wait long for Futures and Frosting. Then, they each start thinking about the "next" steps in their relationship.
In true Claire and Carter fashion, neither one of them can actually tell the other what they're thinking. So, the fun begins! Once everything begins to fall in place though, it's perfection. Gavin is still providing hours of entertainment for all. Jenny still says the craziest things and Drew I'd love to see a story about Jenny and Drew. I think I'd definitely have to slap on a Depends for that one.
I'm so happy that I heard about these books. They helped to remind why I love reading so much. Not only are they funny, but the love story is romantic, sweet, and realistic. I can not recommend this book enough! If you are over 18 and have a good sense of humor and like a great love story I loved this book almost as much as Seduction and Snacks.
Claire, Carter, Gavin and co are back for a hilarious ride that made me laugh till my jaw and belly hurt with a few snorts thrown in. Well unless you want funny stares or warning for public indecency when you pee yourself from laughing. Saying that though, I thought there was a more serious tone at times in this one, which made me feel kind of soppy and mushy.
I love th I loved this book almost as much as Seduction and Snacks. However, I got to say that Jenny and Drew are bloody fantastic characters; to me they steal every scene they are in! Overall they were my favourite couple!! Was that too much?? Oh and spitters really are quitters! I learned how to deep throat while hanging my head off of the end of the bed last month. Then he wanted to find a condom because he thought his sperm might drown the baby. My face hurts and if that whole laughing-burns-calories thing is true, I can avoid the gym for the next week!
Futures and Frosting was yet another great, solid, hilarious book from Tara Sivec! That woman knows how to make a person laugh; she seriously needs to make one of those daily calendars for my desk so I can have a giggle days a year. Or maybe she can get a job writing for one of those 3o minute sitcoms or come to my local Funny Bone Comedy Club. I don't know what I really want from her My face hurts and if that whole laughing-burns-calories thing is true, I can avoid the gym for the next week!
I don't know what I really want from her but I love the way she makes me laugh! Claire really has a kind heart but what I really like about her is her sense of humor. I love her diarrhea of the mouth. In many ways she reminds me of myself because I forget my filter at home on a daily basis. For instance, last week I told a guy at work he needed to cut his hair.
He looked at me for a minute and then I said, "or you can leave it and if you lose hair on top, you have enough for a comb over". Okay, back to Claire, I wish she was real so we could be friends, however, I would keep her as far away from my Facebook account as humanly possible. Oh, and I don't know if I would let her meet my mother. Carter is almost perfect! I completely love that guy!
Yes, he has some silly insecurities about not being husband material but to be honest, I enjoyed his dorky cuteness. He always seems to go the extra mile for Claire He never misses an opportunity to sneak in a little kiss to her neck or wrap his arms around her. And to put a cherry on the sundae, he is also a great father.
That kid never ceases to amaze me. Was that too much?? What an immature adult baby. Thanks so much for the laughs Tara, and for the perfect conclusion to a great story!! And booze and filthy language. Of course, they are still wildly in love, but it takes some adjusting.
Now, if he would just take those laxative Jenny suggested to ease his snoring, he would be the complete package LOL! Together Claire and Carter are too freaking cute! For some reason, this romance seems more real than other contemporary romances.
Maybe it was the fact that they don't cuddle all night long or have naked time five times a day. Whatever it is, I really felt these two and would gladly have them over for dinner anytime. Tara came out swinging with her supporting characters again in this one! Drew, I still love the t-shirts! Jenny, I hope you figured out the Benjamin Wa Balls; I don't think you are supposed to actually "try" them in the store! Liz, I hope you found a cure for your female issues but for future reference, guys don't like to hear about them.
Jim, you genuinely seem to have the most maturity but drinking and thinking may not be your thing. And, George, I am glad you didn't sell Claire to the traveling circus! I am sure anyone who read Seduction and Snacks remembers Gavin and his runaway mouth. Let me just say that mouth is still running in Futures and Frosting! He is really a walking episode of Kids Say the Darndest Things.
I was rolling on the floor when he was talking about his parent's love life, "Mommy and Daddy make a lot of noise when they kiss. Do not read if you have no sense of humor. Meer lezen Minder lezen.

I was kind of surprised that this book wasn't nearly as funny as the first book but it was still alot of fun to read. Drew and Jenny's characters crack me up! I would love to have a friend like him that made me laugh all the time. Gavin is still as ornery as ever but God I love that kid. When Claire tells the stepford mom's off at Gavin's party I freakin loved it!
I was really starting to get pissed off when Carter kept putting off asking Claire to marry him but the way he finally does it was so sweet and heartwarming I got alittle teary eyed. Liz is still as crazy as ever and she and Jim are so much fun, he's so tame compared to her I think that's what makes their characters so great together. I can't wait to get to Drew and Jenny's story.
At times I was laughing so hard I almost peed my pants. And needless to say Carter and Claire are still as sexy as ever. I highly recommend this series to everyone.
For those who are new to this series, be sure to read the first book: Seduction and Snacks first because this book is the follow up! It is probably my absolute favorite romantic comedy series of all time and I know that I will be constantly re-reading it. Futures and Frosting continues Claire and Carters story after they finally become a couple. Is their life like a fairytale with sunshine and rainbows? In fact, this entire series is a must have for all fans of romantic comedies.
If you have not read this series yet, then you are missing out! If you do, be aware that people are going to look at you funny because this book brings out the giggle snorts.
