So many of these books are all about small, weak women being dominated by big strong men, punctuated by stereotypes about how woman are shallow and only ever do/like things because of hot guys, yet I get called a “pick me” with internalized misogyny for not liking books like this.
10:55 not a huge fan of F1 but considering the fact that people still talk about a very serious accident from 2020 where a dirver's car was split in half I doubt people would be over the accident after 2 years
since one of my hyper fixations is f1 I'm currently writing an unhinged 15k word long dissertation (don't judge, it's my mental breakdown and I choose the coping mechanism) on the insane technical inaccuracies of this book, thank you for this roasting the other elements of the book!
@@WfrArcPol that was genuinely one of the best and most well-researched things I've read in a while, thank you so much for sharing it with me. "Liam Zander's fav shirt" ACTUALLY made my laugh aloud
So I watched this video in my lunch break, but instead of going back to work I read your whole document... oops. In my defense it was really well done and has made me way more interested in F1
f1 crashes and controversies live for a very long time. people are still hung up over the 2021 season. you are better off reading lestappen fic on ao3 than this. i am DEAD serious the fic writers go so hard like why does this omegaverse au have some of the most eloquently and suspensefully written prose i've ever read
cant even care about the bad romance im just so bothered that they're racing in sydney somehow. f1 races in australia happen in a completely different state ;_; lauren asher discover google challenge
I guess it helps to give a convenient separation between the novel and IRL. And things can change - they USED to race in Adelaide, and now they don't...
Like I get why we have to see the love interest as attractive because it's a romance book, but I think where it FAILS is that we have to be TOLD that they're attractive. We just have the main characters going on an infodump about the other person's muscles or eyes or whatever. Are we shown how other people react to them? Are we shown about how they carry themselves? And its IMMEDIATE TOO LOL. I hate instant attraction, why don't they ever build it up? Or maybe if someone was instantly attracted why is it so IN YOUR FACE LMAO...I can't explain it, but there's subtle and better ways to communicate that someone is attractive
fr like sometimes you see someone and you think they're extremely appealing in various ways, but it doesn't affect you that bad because that's simply not how people react to anything Ever. also, idk if it's just me but I wouldn't be able to notice so many physical features without staring lmao
oh i love f1 and i love these videos of yours, this is so funny. i genuinely hope you're reading books you like in between the bad ones to keep your sanity lmao. (also! in brazil the races happen in são paulo! but you got close)
@@hloserh I read tons of books that I love! I usually talk about them in my reading wrap ups, lmao. As for the Brazilian races, the book explicitly named Rio so I guess the author just got that wrong
@@nichiejc im glad! gotta watch your reading wrap ups to see the good stuff. and I did have a feeling the author would take liberties with the cities where the races happen lmaoooo, her getting it wrong really matches the vibe of this book.
this would be a better book if Maya realized that Noah wasn't her type, fell in love with one of the mechanics, and went home with a sweet buff man who picks her up in like a bugatti idk about cars. and maybe Noah & Santiago do an enemies to friendly rivals to lovers thing in the background if you want some flavor
I’ve read 3 of the books in the series (1st, 4th and then DNF’d the 2nd) because I’m a sucker for punishment. I will admit I enjoyed the 4th one the most, the dynamic was much better and very sweet lol
completely off topic to the book but I have that same xdinary heroes poster (the sports looking one idk how to describe it) on my door lol I love all the posters u have in the background
As an Asexual, the amount of these 'spicy' romance books that are being released these days is SO heartbreaking. I miss the days where romances were actually sweet. The number of them I have read that are all Spicy ;) is ridiculous. But unfortunately, these things sell. Booktok is great in some ways and if you look in the right places, you can get some great recommendations, but you have to filter through all the Spice ;) first. I wish it was easier to find some romance with no spice like there used to be 10 years ago...

formula 1 romance and it isn't even gay? what's the point then?
Exactly my point I’d be so down if this would be gay 😢
i did actually read a gay one once- pole position by rebecca j caffery. i was pretty questionable imo and i didn't like it but it's there..
these types of romances should be capped at a maximum of like, 300 pages because over 600 is a CRIMEEE

not even 10 minutes into the video and i already know this book would be about 20 times better if the romance was between santiago and noah
Heavy on that😂

“the Caribbean Ocean” … as a Caribbean I’m offended. As a human with geography knowledge I’m dead
These inner monologues read like amateur roleplay 💀💀
I'm a massive F1 fan this was a very fun video to watch

It kills me because it literally says it on the race schedule.

The striking exoticism of _Europe_
as an f1 fan i’m so excited but also very scared to watch this
I’m a simple man. I see ‘F1 romance book’. I click

My brain keeps confusing plushies on your bed with the sad pou plush
Like the pumpkin is the body and black plushies are his eyes
Im sorry 😢
As someone with a close friend who's seriously into F1, I thoroughly enjoyed this.
"Walls thinner than a condom"
But like.... Don't condoms trap things????
they have f1 but where is f2?
I’ve read 3 of the books in the series (1st, 4th and then DNF’d the 2nd) because I’m a sucker for punishment. I will admit I enjoyed the 4th one the most, the dynamic was much better and very sweet lol

"Making out on a beach in Azerbaijan" was NOT on my 2024 book bingo.
Azerbaijan. That notoriously PDA-friendly place. Okay.
What does that have to do with the making out on the beach part?
@@giorgospapoutsakis5271 its just a social norm there, pda is frowned upon
As a f1 fan its also extremely innacurate😭
Anyone know what car Ms. Asher used for the cover? Looks to me like the F150 Italia with all the sponsors airbrushed off for copyright dodging
istg i can remember a fanfiction of i think harry styles of the same name. that I may or may not have read.
There is no way the plot of this book, as you just described it, justfies 600 pages. It just doesnt.
Chat does Noah have brown eyes ??
I think they might be green, idk
They chose the most cursed name they plausibly could.
Also, RIP Jays. It’s only going to get worse from here.
Still a better situation than the White Sox 🙏🏻
I’m a super casual f1 fan and even I could see the issues with this book 😭
Braver then the tropes for real for real
Isn't that illegal? People are getting prosecuted just by selling for example Nike's shirts and we all know they're not associated with them
13:52 that hurt to listen to
23:30 I'm lmao
Omg a fellow Stay!!
