This is an enjoyable but lightweight girls school story, first published 90 years ago and rather showing it. The characters and their conflicts are drawn fairly simplistically and I did slightly lose track of who was who apart from the central two or three. There is a bit of a tendency for exciting things to happen for the convenience of the plot rather than believably arising from the actions of characters.
