I mean the characters are diverse in terms of the fact that they’re all from different countries but I’m pretty sure they’re all white…

4.25

A very strong 4.25, I actually really liked the main characters and there relationship surprisingly was really healthy and sweet (also this is not erotica idk why its classed as that). I probably won't read the next book cause I really didn't like Sophie or Liam that much in this one to read from there pov and relationship but I may read jaxs book cause I quite liked him.

I’m not much of a sport romance girl, but this F1 backdrop was fun. With all the traveling and parties. I really liked Maya as a character, so well rounded and sweet/sassy. Noah’s character arch is what I always want from this archetype of MMC. Their chemistry was great. Though Noah’s parents can rot in hell.

Sports Romance, Player MMC, Mutual Pining, 3 🔥

Due to the overwhelming amounts of misogyny in this book and the amount of idiocy from the leads, I've decided to quit. Asher's writing is something you'd find on FF.Net and not even decent. It's incredibly juvenile, vague, and lacking any sort of depth. The amount of repetition makes me wanna put my head through a wall. If I have to hear one more snide comment about the women Noah sleeps with/his intimate life or one more comment about how Maya is a sexy Spanish woman who is so very sexy and Spanish and fresh, I'm going to lose my mind. The ridiculous way Maya pants after Noah and acts like she has no control over her libido, Noah's disgusting and creepy behavior towards her and his complete disregard for his partners, the amount of denial of their attraction…It's a big yikes and a no from me. I've read The Fine Print and enjoyed it well enough. The Dirty Air series is not one I think I'll continue with.

Well, I didn't think I liked contemporary romance, and sports romance sounded incredibly boring... BUT this was surprisingly fun! I did get bored in some of the racing parts, but they weren't too bad. I think the author has a good understanding of psychology. The MMC's emotional issues made perfect sense with his background, and I was so impressed with how he went about overcoming them!

I was pleasantly surprised by this one after starting Dreamland Billionaires which was cool, but didn’t do a ton for me. I didn’t expect to enjoy this as much as I did. This is a forbidden romance between a budding vlogger and her brothers F1 racing rival. I really enjoyed the progression of these characters relationships especially for the MMC who actually takes accountability for his own healing. This was also perfectly immersed in the sport itself. I’ll definitely be continuing the series!

1.5

that .5 was extremely generous of me

basically an f1 fanfic (my bet is on verstappen personally, also try to tell me jax isn't literally lewis lol) featuring sincerely atrocious writing, the blandest characters on earth, small mistakes regarding how f1 works sprinkled everywhere (which, as a chronic f1 fan and someone who pays close attention to details, it killed me) and the cheesiest, cringiest 50 pages to finish it off

i'm surprised i managed to get through it tbh i was fighting for my life to not dnf it around the 60% mark

the silly season wasn't silly enough this year to keep me entertaining and this is what happened 😭 but at least the summer break is almost over and good ol' f1 will be back soon, amen

also, nsfw:

is it normal for someone to get as many boners as this man did. like are we sure he doesn't need to see a doctor or smth. the only time in the book where he doesn't have a boner is the epilogue. i'm concerned
