For me,this didn't quite live up to its promise of slightly sinister boarding school,whee you leave your past behind for three years to enter.
The scenes were set nicely of how the boarders lived,the clothing,the meals,the secret rituals....
It had atmosphere at times,but I found it slow,and the main character not all that likeable.

Intriguing blurb but this book was far less sophisticated than I wanted with a YA feel. The writing is workmanlike, the story meanders without much drive, and I just couldn't 'see' the characters or story.
