This was such a wonderful story! I feel so sad to leave it and miss the main character already. The first 50 pages went a bit slowly for me but as soon as Gina got to her boarding school I was hooked and found this hard to put down, a couple of nights I had to keep reading until after midnight despite having to be up by 6am.

I loved the character of Abigail, if only I had an Abigail in my life! There are many other great characters in this story, there were many school girl characters that I really enjoyed and several teachers too, all flawed but realistic. The mystery was good, the relationships and dynamics between the girls and the teachers made for many interesting elements. I really enjoyed some of the humour in this story. The ridiculous punishments and rules seemed both farfetched and believable. The climax of the story was very enjoyable, you may guess the identity of one character but it was good not to be sure until the end. The story became quite a page turner and Gina's voice narrating from the future gave some poignant insights into what became of some of the characters.

Although in my library this is categorised as adult fiction this could be and perhaps is a YA novel. Thank you to goodreads friend Alwynne for her wonderful review of this book.
