Sixth form with the twins as Head Girls is great. And a brief (brief!) return of Will! I ship him and Carlotta and hate myself for it.

Finally we get the "ending" we want - although this isn't a Last Term at Malory Towers, except for one character - it's most of the characters' first term as sixth-formers and we see how Pat and Isabel get on as head girls. There's lots of recycling of old themes from Blyton's and Cox's other stories. While I like the familiar allusions they don't need to be almost exactly parallel. Still, glad to have read all the "St Clare's" books, whether you consider these canonical or not (I would lean towards not).

I loved this series, it’s one of my childhood favourites. This was one of the first books I read set in a boarding school, and this series holds a special place in my heart. Would highly recommend it, it’s a fun read. ❤️

This book is nice. Morag is a bubbling volcano of anger on the outside and is filled with worries about her family problems. Fizz has a big secret! She thinks it will affect the people around her. Pricilla is mean and blackmails all first formers.

I never had a chance to fully read the st clares series when i was younger and i wanted to get through them all as i loved the ones i had the chance to read. They were all brilliant and amazing in their own way. It felt like you were with the girls whilst they grew up and you got to experience those memories with them. Parts of it made me want to cry and there were also plenty of times i laughed at the book too.
