This was the first Forest novel I came across, and I instantly fell in love with it. I still think it is arguably her best. A school that was depicted fairly realistically - so refreshing! Staff who weren't automatically Good and Wise and Fair.... and lots of the same kind of slang that I used myself at boarding-school, admittedly a few years later.
