i personally loved the book, the drama meant i couldn't put it down; yes some of the characters are bitchy like some episode of Gossip Girl but it's fitting for the universe/world/place where the story takes place - exactly what i think a rich boarding school would be like

Things I Wanted To Say (but never did) Is the first book in the Lancaster Prep series, and I absolutely adored it. It’s a dark romance with a lot of tropes I love such as bad girl/bad boy, forced proximity, dedregation etc. It also gave me major Punk 57 vibes (which is a favorite book of mine). Definitely can’t wait to read the rest of this series!

literally one of the worst books i have ever read. So immaturely written, there is no plot, no chemistry, the characters are extremely unlikable, there’s absolutely no development in anyone. I’m sorry to the author, but i don’t know how this got published.

This book totally satisfies my hidden sub self. Whit is so damn hot when he calls Summer his pretty little whore. I enjoy the read while there are definitely some flaws. Some chapters feels like just word filling and can be cut short or removed without affecting the flow of the story. Also I don’t understand the motive of why Slyvie turned 180 (I got that she was jealous that Summer chose her brother over her but she did not necessarily have to say the same hurtful thing to Whit even after Summer left). Also I was not really convinced of how Sylvia just gave in so easily toward the end while I didn’t see Whit making any persuasive statements despite having his father on his side and he was over eighteen years old at that point. 
Also the bullying in this book is not that bad. I favor Rina Kent’s bullying more (you know what I mean if you’ve read Aiden and Elsa’s book) where the bullying was more brutal.

P.S. the butt play in this book is 10/10! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 where Summer gave Whit a handjob while tonguing his backdoor

Heat: 🔥🔥🔥🔥-🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
