➽ Olivia Dade does it again and delivers a swoonworthy romance!! Ship Wrecked is about Gods of the Gates co-stars Maria and Peter who are set to film their parts over the course of 6 years. After an awkward ONS, being together in close proximity might be difficult, but they are nothing if not professionals. I loved Maria so much, she's an aspiring Swedish actress who is hoping for her big break in mainstream media, so being part of Gods of the Gates is her chance. She's super outspoken, caring and brave! There is still a lot of fatphobia in the media industry and I admired how Maria took it head on, never letting others belittle her body or decide to force her into dieting! Peter is a bit more timid when it comes to upsetting anyone on set, as he knows Gods of the Gates is his chance at a career. Nevertheless, he adores Maria and wouldn't want to see her hurt! I loved their banter and the great chemistry they had 💗

- fat mcs being horny and finding love
- Maria MF Ivarsson. my queen, my wife, my one true love. what an icon. a legend. thee moment. i love that she doesn’t compromise her wants for the sake of others. and she’s not afraid of losing her job to uphold her values and beliefs.
- “It’s a job, Peter. Only a job. Not worth my happiness.”
- the mmc is super immature and just not sexy. he’s a massive ****.
like okay you’ve got a dead mommy and your dad doesn’t understand you. get a therapist lad. He’s also a manipulative arsehole who thinks Maria should follow him until the ends of the earth because ‘if she loved him she wouldn’t leave him’. have a day off - this story takes place over 6 years but we don’t get to see much of them in between. we see them get to know each other and then we see them again being super familiar. it felt kinda strange
- maria’s only personality traits are that she’s genuinely a nice person, super sexy and swedish. and peter’s is being insufferable.
- “She was about to turn thirty, and it showed.” first of all, ew. second of all, i hated this so much with every fibre of my being. especially when the man saying this is about 9/10 years older than her.
- This book has A LOT of cameos (from the previous books) which started out cool but ended super convoluted. It was just a bunch of exposition on the page that the reader just didn’t need. The story would have worked the same way without all the unnecessary explanations.
