I’m not getting through this book as fast as I did her others and it’s upsetting me. The book isn’t bad, it’s just not “Yours Truly.”

Euthanize a four year old healthy dog? Diabolical

Y’all didn’t tell me her name is Samantha. Now I have to read it.

Oh this book extra grown.

I do enjoy Natasha’s writing.

“That’s why my Linky was there to save you today. I wanted yous to meet”

Sorry. I hate the kid talk.

“I feel immediately comfortable with Sasha and Nevaeh, and that makes me anxious. I can’t afford to get close to anyone here. I need to keep to myself. As much as I love the vibe of this coffee shop, I can’t come back here.”

Doesn’t make sense to me, but ok.

There’s truly no depth to this book. Liam and Sophie are currently my least favorite characters.

…I’m going to DNF this book, aren’t I? Why is it all sex talk for Liam? This is not a man written by a woman! This isn’t yearning! He’s annoying. And a pig, honestly.

Chapter 10 and I feel nothing towards Liam or Sophie. I liked them better in Throttled as background characters.

“That’s how it is between Liam and me. A battle of wills, of two headstrong people fighting for control of one another.”

Y’all are actually boring

“It’s safe to say we both made some careless mistakes over the break, including Jax chewing out an American reporter who made a racist comment. After he fucked with the guy’s camera, we can assume no one else on the grid will fuck with him for having a white mom and a black dad anymore.”

Because what’s to be rude about that for?

I’m on chapter 5 and this book dragging.

Lauren, where’s the depth?

“Johanna’s death changed me. A few months after she passed, I zipped up my race suit, signed a contract with McCoy, and won my second World Championship. I accepted the life I was meant to live while shunning the bitter memories. Passivity became my defense mechanism over the past few years.”

I hate this for him.

ABSOLUTELY NOT!! Johanna didn’t make it? I cannot. Let me DNF.

“He reads books and uses chess references. Liam Zander is a closet nerd, and knowing this secret pulls a smile from me.”

I would hate to like Liam out of all the racers. I’m hoping Santi or Jax will be my favorite.

I’ve been reading and not updating. Baby, I do love me some writing by Lauren Asher!

“Maya Alatorre, Bachelor of Arts in Communications.”

Perfection

Not a third act break up

“Reader: she hears anyway.”

JANE EYREEEEEEEEEEE

“Very to extremely. But I pretended I didn’t, because he hated losing. He hated not feeling like the smartest person in the room, but he was good at hiding it. He was charming in public. But in private the insecurities came out, and . . .”

I know a September Virgo when I read about one.

OH MY GOOOOOSHHHHHH!!!!
MY SHAYLA!!!

I just realized that’s my Olive and Adam from The Love Hypothesis!
ALIIIIIIII!!!

“He puts his hand on the headrest of the seat to back out of the spot. His fingers brush against my hair, soft, distracted.”

Yesssssss

Millicent is my favorite character. I love grannies!

Ali, what is an iTwat?

“Just checking in. Making sure you’ve eaten enough.”
I roll my eyes. “I did. Thanks, Daddy.” My blood sugar is at 120 milligrams. I’m killing it.”

I just know that did something for him.

So I’m guessing Jonathon will be the villain in this book.
