Misfit (Prep Book 1)

Product Information

to make matters worse, lawson frequently defends his sex addiction by saying that since he’s attracted to everyone, he has to sleep around because there’s so many people to choose from. my god. how did this get published. It’s been a whirlwind for RJ—his mother is suddenly getting married to a rich guy he never met, and they’re sending him to Sandover Prep for his senior year. Sandover is an exclusive prep school for rich boys who’ve gotten into trouble. THE CLIFFHANGER THOUGH! I'm really keeping my fingers crossed that it's not as bad as it looks but can't wait to figure out the next clue in this mystery! I was really looking forward to this new series from Elle Kennedy. I was hoping it would have some Erin Watt Royals vibes (it did) and I was intrigued by the blurb. Did I end up loving it? Not really. I guess I liked it. I’m having a hard time deciding. There were a lot of great things about it, but there was also some stuff that bugged me.

even if you can excuse the fact that elle kennedy wrote this in the first place, it should never have been published. she is literally rich. she can afford sensitivity readers and desperately needs them. These boys are bad news, yet I couldn’t help but like them. Each one is struggling with something and I found myself wanting to give them a hug and a good talking to in equal measure. Autoarea ne permite să îi cunoaștem pe fiecare din ce în ce mai bine, astfel că ne dăm seama cât de adânc și-a lăsat trecutul amprenta asupra fiecăruia dintre ei. This pulled me in straight away and had me engrossed throughout, the only gripe I had was the various pov’s many stories within a story branching off into their own stories. It’s easy enough to keep up its just something I for one am not a huge fan of but needless to say I did enjoy it overall and has me anticipating the next book. The problem with this book is it seemed like Elle was experimenting with other writing styles. For example: every other book she’s written is just the POVs of the 2 main characters. This one every rando side character got their own POV. I get the idea get you familiar with the character before they get their own standalone to “make you eager to read theirs”… but it didn’t work out. They should have just been strong enough side characters we’d want to read their stand alones, not everyone needs to be a main character in every book. This book should have only focused on Sloan and RJ, this was their story.While at most times I appreciate massive cast, this book suffers from it. I just can't keep my attention span for what is going on. Elle Kennedy peaks with Off-Campus for me and that's about it *crying at the corner because I wanna love this*

Silas: Lawson’s official babysitter, is supposed to be a good boy but he has some secrets on his own Now usually I'm not a fan of the multiple POVs in romance books. And most books I've read that had this lost the romance along the way. The multiple character POVs got confusing and watered down the plot. This was definitely not the case here. If anything, the additional character POVs enriched and added to the plot to make it all the more delicious. Particularly the hedonistic Lawson with his evil intentions. God, I can't wait until his book. But I digress. Sloane (ik denk dat je het zo spelt, ik heb het audioboek en wil het niet opzoeken): De enige vrouwelijke POV. Niet heel opmerkelijk. "Ik zie in wat voor manipulatieve zooi het is. Anyway, ik ga naar hem toe" is een geparafraseerde tekst uit het boek. Manmanman. Beneath Fenn’s pretty, party-boy surface is a dangerous truth about the night Casey almost died. He thought lying to her was the right thing to do, but when the secret shakes loose, he just might lose her for good.I enjoyed watching RJ and Fenn, who have recently become stepbrothers, start to bond. RJ had a lot of work to do to start fitting into the school, and I love that he took his own path which wasn’t always easy. I thought that the romance portion of the story was very well done and I appreciated the fact that there was even a bit of mystery worked into the story. I listened to the audiobook and thought that each of the narrators did a great job of bringing this story to life. I loved the fact that each of the different perspectives used a different narrator. I cannot wait to read more of this series! RJ is not thrilled about seeing his mom making out with her new boyfriend husband in front of him. He is even less thriller about going to a prep school for problematic rich boys. But he doesn’t care too much; he doesn’t plan on staying there long. If only his new stepbrother stopped making him socialize… It’s been a long time since Casey Tresscott has felt like her life was her own. After the car accident that nearly cost her everything, she’s used to her family’s coddling and the relentless whispers at school, no matter how much they sting. After all, she’s found a safe harbor in her budding relationship with Sandover’s golden boy, Fenn Bishop…or so she thinks. After RJ’s mom marries a rich man seemingly out of nowhere, he is forced to attend Sandover Prep School for his senior year. His plan is to keep his head down and not form any attachments. But all of that changes when he meets Sloane. She’s the headmaster’s daughter and also forbidden. Though, RJ is never one to follow the rules…‬

Het plot wil ik het niet eens over hebben. Er was een random Karate Kid plotlijn?? Uit het niks??? Er werden ook constant dingen geïntroduceerd die nooit meer genoemd werden. WAT IS ER NOU MET DIE WIETPLANTAGE IN HET BOS??????? HALLO?!?! POVs is too many. At most, I’d have been fine with Fenn, RJ, Sloane. I never need inside Lawson’s head ever again. Silas- there was literally no point to his POV or his character.Good thing RJ doesn’t believe in rules. Sure, Sloane insists she’s swearing off guys this year, but their connection is impossible to deny. He wants her bad, and he’s going to win her over if it kills him.
