Gabby's Reviews > Crash Test

Probably closer to a 4.5 but !!!!!!!!
Dude, I loved this book. I ADORED Travis so much. This read like fanfiction, and I mean that in the best way possible, something about the writing was so addictive and I couldn't put it down. I do wish the characters were a little more fleshed out, but I adored Travis so much in this book I didn't even care. I love how in the present day we get these very intense chapters where Jacob gets into a nearly fatal accident and has to be air lifted to the hospital, and Travis is frantically trying to figure out where he is and what he can say, because they've been dating for a year and nobody knows. Nobody even knows that they are gay let alone dating each other. Then in flashback chapters, we get to see how these two met, which I loooooved getting to see that.

Travis is just the sweetest little bean, I really connected with his character in this book and felt for him. I know NOTHING about F1 racing, but I still had a fun time reading about it. Jacob is a bit of a frustrating character at times in this book, he really seems to struggle with his sexuality and his family is homophobic in a way that some readers might find really triggering, so that's something to keep in mind when reading.

Here's the reading vlog where I read this book and a few others in a 24-hour reading vlog: https://youtu.be/9sWRwW1CCFI
