panOlivia Dade doesn‘t write stupid miscommunication challenge level: impossible. This pissed me off, probably bc it‘s EXACTLY what Lauren and Alex did in the last book, and I‘m tired of these 30yo people supposedly in therapy not talking to each other!! It‘s not that hard!!!

I switched to the book & beer thing tonight, and lemme tell you, this Mojo Gose from Phillips Brewing & Malting Co is the real deal. Solid gose finish with delicious mango-orange character throughout. My tastebuds are happy.
I‘m still enjoying the book, too, though I‘m with those who‘ve found the pacing odd. We‘ll see how it unfolds in the back half.
Did the whole tea & book thing earlier. I wasn‘t sure about SHIP WRECKED at first, mainly because Peter is SUCH an asshole to Maria after their audition, but it‘s grown on me over the first 125 pages. Even if I don‘t love it in the end, I feel like I‘m on track to like it a lot.
Just finished this one. It was cute, although there were times I got frustrated with both main characters for their poor decisions. Overall, I enjoyed it and I always like seeing the characters from the previous books as supporting characters in the current read.
The cover on the left is the stained cover. On the right is the preorder gift with purchase cover that nods to classic romance novels. Which do you prefer?
Peter & Maria are one night stands turned co-stars filming on a small island for 6 years. VERY slow burn as they keep things professional until the show is over, timeline is weird bc of this, & not that steamy, if we‘re being honest. least favorite of the series so far, loved the first 2, this one was okay, but liked that both MC‘s are fat in this one, &it‘s mentioned less than in previous books. pacing was weird to me but still cute
panI really wanted to like this book. I haven't read the first two books in the series and I don't think that I would after this one. I was excited to read it at first because of the plus size characters. Unfortunately, the story was not executed well.
The story has this weird time jump and the two main characters were kind of flat...actually Maria annoyed me and Peter was, meh.
I give it 2 ⭐️ and that's being generous.
My duty as an American forces me to buy Reese‘s Peanut Butter Cups wherever I may find them.
pick5/5
Peter and Maria are co-stars with their own isolated story line on the hit show Gods of the Gate with a slow-burn romance on and off screen. I loved the way the relationship between Peter and Maria developed over time. I continue to love this series and all the characters in it.
pickThis is probably the last book I‘ll read in 2022 and I am definitely ending it on a high note! This was classic Olivia Dade; hilarious, touching, and so very steamy! As always, she lets the world know that women of all body shapes and sizes are normal and deserve the world too. I adored everything about this and now wonder who in the cast might be left.
pickI‘m giving this a borderline pick. The third in a series that I feel is not quite for me, as I feel I have aged out of some of the jokes. However, I did enjoy the two character‘s banter. In fact the chapters that were texts and interviews were the best parts, which made me lean towards a pick. I did not love the third act conflict, it was pretty obvious, but it at least resolved quickly. 3.5⭐️

panLeast favorite of the three so far. Too long and too open door for me.
Page 100 and I'm really enjoying this so far!
Books 142, 143 and 144 of the year. Six away from my goal of 150 books.

Low pick.
Third book in the Spoiler Alert series.
Liked that both MCs had down-to-earth flaws, but somehow the story felt too long.

pickI loved Peter and Maria so much. After having a one night stand that ends with one of them ghosting the other, they wind up cast as two characters stranded on an island together for years as they yearn for each other. Life quickly resembles art. Lots of tenderness and desire but what I appreciated most was how often I laughed out loud at their banter at every press conference. Sad to see this series end but cannot wait for what Dade writes next.
pickA great finale for the Spoiler Alert series, Maria and Peter‘s love story was the funny, smart, and the slowest of the #slowburn romances. I was so happy to receive an #arc of this book which will release in November. The thinly veiled references to the Game of Thrones series (and terrible ending), homage to fanfic, and body positive undercurrents make this book shine. I‘ve fallen in love with the entire cast of characters and you will too!
