I own this book. This review can also be found on The StoryGraph.

Someone I know had this novel, but she passed it to another person, who then passed it to me. I put it off for a while until I ran out of reading material, so I finally picked it up and read it. When I finished it, I didn't realise it was part of a series until I checked the facts. Unfortunately, this instalment is the only one I have, and no one else has any other ones. It starts with the first character I see, Elizabeth Allen, or Elizabeth for short, returning to school after some time. Initially, during her first year, Elizabeth had a distaste for school after some events branded her as the naughtiest girl, but she hopes to change that. Elizabeth arrives at school for what I assume is her second year at an institution called Whyteleafe. Everything looks typical at first, until an incident occurs involving some of the students, and that calls for the student council. I don't see many schools having councils with that much power like that, since they can decide sentences like a court; usually the principal or teacher does that. But not here. I don't think Whyteleafe, run by students, would be orderly for long. Here's where the flaws surface: Though I liked the characters, I couldn't relate to them, which might be either a one-off problem or a recurring issue in this series, but I'll know when I read the rest of it. I also liked the mood; it never got too dark or emotional, and the conclusion hit the nail on the head. I hope the first part of the series will be as good if not better than this one. ( )

This book ws the first book i ever read of Enid Blyton but ill sertainaly read more i love how the book changes between enemy and friend. A great book to read. ( )

Another term at the least realistic school in the world.
