Spoiler Alert

As someone that used to belong to a fanfic community and has also been a longtime fat person (lol), I loved this book. I related to April in so many ways. I loved reading about the way Marcus viewed her and how he described her body with reverence. I gathered from the references throughout that Marcus Caster-Rupp was not so loosely modeled after Nikolaj Coster-Waldau as Jaime Lannister, that Gods of the Gates was Game of Thrones, and that E. Wade was George R. Martin. Fanfiction inception. I wanted to watch Gods of the Gates and read the books though so I could be a fan. I loved the tags for the fanfics and the mention of kudos. I also loved that the biggest complement April (as a fanfic writer) received, was that her smut was great from E. Wade. The relationships Marcus and April had with their parents were important. I think this was almost a 5 star, but sometimes it teetered over the edge of fluffy into corny. I definitely want to continue this series, and I haven't looked into who the next book is about, but I realllllly hope it's Lauren and Alex.
