Misfit (Prep Book 1)

Product Information

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…‬ 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.

I think what it comes down to with Misfit is that there was too much included in one book. Taking out the POVs other than RJ’s and Sloane’s might have helped. It would have given more time to develop the relationship between RJ and Sloane and moved the story along faster. Each of the other guys is getting their own book anyways. Maybe the multiple POV over the series will make more sense than just in this one book. I don’t know. I guess I’ll find out later. The heroine, Sloane, is the typical cold queen who is always better than everyone else, shuts up all the bullies and seems all perfect on the outside. I’m torn between how many times I’ve read about this kind of ‘badass’ female character and how much I love them every single time. Let’s be honest, we know they are not real, but we want them to be real so badly that we don’t care.I would still recommend for you to read it. You might have a different experience. And it’s not like I didn’t like most of what I read. I think it was just execution. And maybe my mood? I would love to hear what you think of it. Silas: Lawson’s official babysitter, is supposed to be a good boy but he has some secrets on his own Wat een bizar boek. Ik heb geen woorden voor hoe bizar. Ik heb in geen tijden zoiets problematisch gelezen. En in 2023????? Bizar, haha. It was a lot. It was hard because I actually liked all the POVs in general. They just didn’ do this story justice. She was named the RITA Finalist for her amazing work in her Contemporary Series Romance, Suspense/Adventure titled Silent Watch.

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. Looking more into how she does her writing, it is clearly evident that her characters definitely come first during her writing. More specifically, she claims to always get ideas for really awesome characters and then take time to thoroughly brain storm the ideas right until she comes up with the best world to place them in. a perfect example of how she is able to achieve this is in her book midnight rescue in which she claims to have had a heroine in mind in advance of course alongside other main characters in the book. What followed was simply the piecing together of smaller sections of her imagination for the book which was done and ended up with a rather solid plot. When a girl runs into RJ while he’s smoking in the woods, he’s immediately attracted to her. The fact that she’s the headmaster’s daughter—which means she’s totally off-limits—doesn’t seem to faze him. But even though Sloane is intrigued by his apathetic vibe, she’s sworn off guys this year. Or has she?Kennedy wanted a spectrum of stories that happened all over this prep school universe? Well, she could’ve just focused on the mmc and fmc and THEN wrote the next mmc and fmc ON THE NEXT BOOK. Small introductions about everyone would’ve sufficed. Too bad this one didn’t really deliver especially after such a promising start. Sounds the pacing really lagged. 🙁 A. While 18 and technically a legal adult, he is A CHILD and he for sure emotionally is one. His entire plot of sleeping with not one but 2 teachers (a married couple) should NEVER have been written. This isn’t a plot point, IT IS CRIMINAL ACTIVITY!! Him being too rich to be expelled in no way makes him be the powerful one in that dynamic because HE IS A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT IN THE CARE OF THOSE TEACHERS. WTAF. That is not sexy smut- that is child abuse. I knew going into this there would be multiple POVs, multiple POVs really don't bother me, but Misfit really struggled to hold my attention.

They were easy to keep separate, but just didn’t do much for the main plot. I would still say read it to see what you think.

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. I imagine you have figured out there is a lot more going on than romance. If Gossip Girl and Off Campus series had a child, Misfit would be the result: teenagers, romance, friendship and loads of drama. For the same price, you have five POVs instead of only two -which also means you’ll have ⅖ of the romance. While I enjoyed RJ-Sloane’s banter, it was far from EK masterpieces. Having so many POVs decreased the amount of development per character and the romance suffered from that-or maybe I’m not that much into the insta-attraction anymore. The friendship between the four boys was my favorite part of the story, especially the dynamics of Silas-Lawson. 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. she was ranked 1st place in the Golden Rose contemporary for her amazing work in the book titled “Dance of Seduction”. 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*

It really did have potential. I was hooked at the start. It had the exclusivity gossip girl fans rave about, the boarding school scene, red hot attraction.. Dar... cei doi sunt anunțați că vor deveni frați vitregi, deoarece mama unuia și tatăl celuilalt se căsătoresc!

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. She admits to be very fond of strong heroines, alpha heroines and generally just enough heat and danger to keep things interesting. Elle’s work has also earned her the USA today and Wall street journal bestselling author titles over the years. 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. the ending was incredibly unsatisfying. i don’t mean the cliffhanger-ish part, I mean that RJ and Sloane’s resolution was rushed and uneventful. it was just boring and made me stop caring about their relationship at all.
