'End of Term' was the first AF book I read, having found it in a second-hand bookshop in the Netherlands - I think it must have been in Leiden - when on a trip to visit friends. I must have been 14... and I'd been out of boarding school for about a year, just long enough to forget the bits I'd disliked and to miss the rest. When Nicola explains to Esther that they weren't aloud to use the front steps except on the first day - something about Kingscote just clicked. This was boarding school as I'd known it. I look forward to the rest of the read-through
