Wren Beaumont is many things.

Beautiful.

Smart.

Sweet.

Innocent.

At Lancaster Prep, the girls love her. They all want to be her friend. Only I see Wren for who she really is.

A repressed little virgin who keeps her feelings locked up so tight she’s probably close to bursting. She thinks she’s above us all.

Even me.

I shouldn’t be drawn to her. She’s not my type.

Until we’re forced to work together in class and realize we might have more things in common than we originally thought. Soon enough I find myself completely obsessed. I will do anything for this girl to make her fall in love with me.

Anything.

A Million Kisses in Your Lifetime

Crew lancaster seems like an asshole with the way he treats her, and wants to only fuck her, because he enjoys the thrill of taking a virgin girl’s virginity. I didn’t like him ever since the start, and i don’t like him even now. 

Wren is a virgin, and she is attracted to crew because he makes her want to do all the things she has forbidden herself to do so. It is infuriating that out of all the boys, she wants to have all her firsts with him? 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️💀 The only similarity they share is that they both are idiots. 

The characters made me put the book down after reading twelve chapters. If someone enjoyed the book, well and good, but this book was not for me.

** spoiler alert **
           This book was interesting to say the least, the beginning started off strong with minsogynst boys especially Crew Lancaster. And the teacher thing was very weird but glad Crew spoke up and got him arrested thankfully. I believe they mentioned Wren being a virgin a billion times which is just too repetitive, made it seem like that's the entire plot lmao. 

But as I got to the middle and ending of the book, Crew did develop some good character development imo. He was/is a rich snob who spoke disgustingly of women but he changed his ways as he got to know Wren better. Yes, his motives at first were negative and wrong. And what he did when she saw him and his boys smoking weed and groped her breast without consent was extremely wrong and disgusting. That's no excuse and I won't gloss over that. I think that was very unnecessary on the author's part. 

Crew did become more respectful and understanding of Wren, he grew with her. He made the efforts to get to genuinely know her. IF his motives were still the same, he wouldn't have met her in the gallery, take her out, etc. He's never made that much effort for any girl and he knew that. He said it himself in the book. 

Wren grew out of her shell and could now stand up for herself and do what makes her happy. Both Wren and Crew helped each other grow throughout the book, Wren helped Crew change for the better. He became a better man for her. He treated her very well from when he started to gain real true feelings for her. He saw her for who she was and didn't toss her to the side. He learned what love is. All because of Wren. 

People can change for the better, it is up to them to want to really change. Crew did that and Wren saw how much he changed his ways for her. He improved himself and became a man. I'm happy Wren got her happy ending :)

abt the lancasters like i literally get hooked ????
so wren and crew, literally soulmates pls- 

- “It’s been three years, four months, two days and a handful of hours since the first moment I set eyes on her. The most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen. The absolute bane of my existence.”

y’all can’t say the was not in love since the 1st chapter like i will probably commit murder if you don’t agree with me 

- “I want this girl to forget herself and get carried away. With me. Because she needs it. Because she wants it. Just like I want her.”

crew’s pov is always amazing istg 

- “I can’t stop thinking about her. And after what happened between us just now? Forget it. She’ll consume me. I know she will. She already does.”

- “She’s in my thoughts. She haunts my dreams. With her sweet smiles and softly spoken words. The way she watches me with those luminous green eyes. That sexy body hidden under the uniform. Her ripe lips wrapped around a Blow Pop, right before I fuck her with it. The way she looks when she comes.”

- “This girl? The sweet, beautiful girl with the mouth made for sin has totally slipped by my defenses, and I let her. Hell, I practically begged her to do it. And I don’t care. I’d do it all over again—for her.”

- “Your favorite piece. A million kisses in your lifetime. You’re doing that right now. I’m your canvas.”

the references to the art just make me melt <3 

- “Because it’s not what I want. You really think I want you to be a casual hookup when I’m sending you Chanel lipsticks every day?”

pls- 
this is literally your way i love you without telling 

- “An early birthday present for my Birdy. A million kisses in your lifetime, from me to you.
 
Love, Crew”

his cards pls- 

- “Merry Christmas. I bought you every shade of lipstick Chanel carries, so you can create your own million kisses in your lifetime. Hopefully you’ll share some of those kisses with me.
 
Love, Crew”

and again, the card pls- 

- “I realized that what I saw in her before wasn’t what I saw in myself. Not at all. Wren isn’t like me. She’s an actual part of me. And I can’t imagine my life without her in it.”

<33

- “Now you owe me two million kisses.”

honestly i didn’t want it to end, i think i just took longer bc i was enjoying it sm that i was dragging the book so the feeling wouldn’t leave

I love this book a lot I’ve heard a lot about it on TikTok and was skeptical but so glad I read it. I binged it in one night one sitting and I couldn’t be more happy. Some cases I was surprised like the lollipop scene (ew) but also some cases were cringe. But in the end I’m a hopeless romantic and so I love it anyway 😭😭 ( I need a crew in my life)

one of the most horrendous things i have ever read.

i’m so happy this was read on my phone because i definitely would have made confetti out of the pages if i had the physical copy.

looking for a horribly written book with misogyny (internalized and spoken aloud), the most hateable characters to have been written on the planet, virginity fetishization, calling your father daddy, groping and fucking with a lollipop aka the most unsanitary thing ever??? then this piece of cow shit is the book for you 😍

(the only good things about it were  cecily and the lipstick and painting collections)

i shall first delve into why this bitch wren was the most annoying fmc ever :

2- judgemental bitch who thinks she gets to give her opinion on other women having sex

4- whiny baby who’s always talking about how her mom is jealous of her because daddy likes her better

5- self centered even when her parents are divorcing and losing money

7- friendless loser who thinks she’s all that before getting a much needed reality check

9- utterly pathetic girl who’s only personality trait is being different (she doesn’t have sex guys! she doesn’t wear makeup or skirts ! she doesn’t want crew for his money like all the other girls !!!) please shut up

why crew is the worst love interest (after that thing zade who’s book i dropped as soon as it began) :

3- glorifies virginity and thinks it’s a thing to win

6-also victimizes himself “my father only cares about the eldest” how about we think about the pressure the elders is under you obviously youngest child???

8- she felt scared before they fucked because she thought he might forget about her pain and chase his own pleasure which isn’t something you should fear in a relationship to begin with????

9-he wants to eat his little bird up 🥺🥺

10- poor him, girls only want his dick and his money (as if he didn’t want wrens virginity the most just because he wanted to know he could get anything he likes)

i have so much more to say but i’ll be moving on and giving my favorite parts 😍😍😍😍 from this disgusting object!

« "Right," Malcolm drawls with a dirty grin.

Now they're all a bunch of sluts, begging for our cocks

I chuckle, though I don't find what he said very amusing. Malcolm has this way of insulting women that I find extra annoying. Yes, we're all a bunch of misogynistic assholes when we hang out together, but none of us go around calling girls sluts like Malcolm does.

"Such a derogatory term," Ezra says, causing us both to glance over at him.

The first half was incredibly slow, but it picked up after the half-way mark, and I ended up loving it!

Genesis (@whisperingchapters)

Wren Beaumont is a model student. Kind, clever and beautiful, she is loved by everyone at Lancaster Prep.

Everyone but brooding campus bad boy Crew Lancaster.

Son of the family who own the school, Crew's life seems easy - but with an overbearing father and high expectations, it's anything but.

Which is why he has no time for people like Wren.

But when their lives unexpectedly collide, Wren discovers there's more to life than good grades - and Crew finally understands what it's like to care about someone other than himself . . .

Could they - should they - become the school's most unlikely couple?
