Now that I've finished Role Model, I no longer want to punch him. 😅

(I have more to say but that's for tomorrow coz now I gotta go to bed. 🤣)

Troy & Harris are so freaking cute. I'm really enjoying Role Model.

And I'm assuming I'll see Ilya's perspective in TLG with his thoughts being along the same lines as Troy's. How if Ilya had died, Shane's pain & grief would be internalized bcoz the only ppl who know are his parents.

One spoiler I was already aware of was the almost plane crash with the Centaur team. But I was expecting it in The Long Game, not Role Model. Troy thinking of his ex & their secret relationship & how if one died neither of them would be able to mourn bcoz no one knew abt them. +

Why does my 13yo niece have Snapchat?! 😩

Ok. I'm softening towards Troy Barrett.

Lured out by the promise of bachelorettes but disappointed it's just a bar full of both cowboys & cowgirls? I dunno, maybe I'm being nitpicky but it didn't land with me. 🤷

911 Spoilers

The Buckley parents are divorcing?! 🤯

911 spoilers

Harry walking in on Ravi & May. Karma for when she did the same to her mom & Bobby. 🤣

Wait. Has Ilya never been to Bood's backyard bbq party? Like ever? Or did he attend one when he first joined the Centaurs? 🤔

Ilya has a loon tattoo?? 🥺

Ok. So. I've started Role Model. One: I didn't realize how young Troy Barrett is when I was introduced to him in Tough Guy until I saw it mentioned in Common Goal. Two: that was quite the opening for Role Model. Hmmm.

If Eric hadn't been distracted by his own relationship woes, I think he would've clocked Ilya & Shane.

Finished Common Goal. I really enjoyed it. I really loved Eric & Kyle.

Kyle Swift (Common Goal) is a brat Dom. 😆

So far Common Goal is my fave Game Changers book. I just absolutely adore Eric & Kyle & how stupid they are being. 🤣

Drives me insane that they created this immensely powerful antichrist child & Supernatural just never does anything again with him.

Eric Bennett not knowing how to date men now that he knows that he's bi. I feel you, bro, bcoz I, as a bi woman, still don't know how to date women. 😳

Eric & Kyle's convo abt sex in Common Goal reminds me of convos I've had with past partners. Bcoz it always boggles an allo's mind that you can go months, even years without sex. Eric Bennett is definitely on the ace spectrum. I'm leaning towards gray, but demi fits too.

Ngl, it's hard rewatching Supernatural bcoz it means watching episodes with MP & I despise that man. 😒

Rewatching Supernatural. Y'know how Dean knew John was possessed bcoz he said he was proud of him? How did Dean not realize Bobby was possessed the minute he said John was right?

I recorded SNL so I could watch it when I got off work & it's crazy how much Connor reminds me of Patrick Swayze.

Ilya... just invited himself to go out with Scott after their game? And no one really... questioned it? He willingly hung out with Scott at a gay bar & it didn't raise any flags for Scott, Kip, or Eric? And Eric was so obvious that Ilya called out his interest in Kyle?

Political meme. Top half is of President Trump saying, "The lives of courageous American heroes may be lost. That often happens in war." Bottom half is Lord Farquaad from Shrek saying, "Some of you may die. But it's a sacrifice I am willing to make."

It's really easy to make decisions when your own life isn't on the line.

At this point, it's really irritating how ppl think they're superior for either liking or hating e3 of Heated Rivalry. Skip's story matters. It resonates with ppl. Just like Hollanov does. Ultimately that should matter most.

I love this so much!! 😂

I did laugh at the fact Ryan walked in on Ilya & Shane. Saw that coming a mile away but still funny. I really want to know what happened after Ryan walked away. Was Shane still freaking out? Did Ilya freak out? Did he laugh? 🤔

Finished Tough Guy. Ngl, I kinda thought Fabian's ex Claude would've been a hiccup while he & Ryan were together. But overall enjoyed the book. I absolutely adore Ryan. I'm glad he quit hockey but I hope he rediscovers his love for it thru teaching at the summer camps.
