Ok I liked this book but not as much and I did the first one. The bucket list idea was great and I think it set a great plot. Liam had a rough backstory and I get why he struggles so much with accepting his love for Sophie, but it still took him too long. There were points were I would get so frustrated with him because he wasn’t accepting it,  he made it seem to himself and everybody that he just wanted to f*ck her and it got so frustrating, the comments too! It just went way too long on that side. Sophie was a fun character, I think that she is just quirky and witty that it made the book better and it alleviated some of my frustration with Liam. Their relationship was good, not great but good. The attraction was definitely there I was just missing something. I still Sophie still needed something, a little more backstory? I don’t know, something else to make the plot better. They were a good couple and I liked their relationship, I just struggled a bit with the individual characters if that makes sense. The epilogue tho!!!!! Sooooo good and just made me like the book wayyyyy more. I would read it again

The events of Collided overlap those of the first book, Throttled, but shift the perspective to different characters. This makes the plot a little too predictable to my liking. The added insight into Sophie' and Liam's characters is nice, altough it feels somewhat insignificant to the whole group of F1 people in the series: the others were given barely any time to shine during this book (just enough to hint at / build a shaky premise for the next sequel). I think the main gain here is to see
if/how
Sophie's fuck it list
gets completed
— so if you're here for the smut and a (tropes:
friends to friends with benefits to lovers
) love story, you'll get what you bargain for, but otherwise this book is easily skippable.

Its alright, nothing spectacular but the spice is right. It’s more adventurous than Throttled, but I’m hoping that Wrecked kicks it up another notch!

I felt many emotions while reading this book. Different characters bring or different aspects of yourself. Loved the exploration of grief and taking control of one’s future. Sophie and Liam have their rough patches but are still so adorable. The phone s** scene…. wooooo
