Review:
Fizzes with cracking one-liners, acute observations and acidic social satire. It's funny, boisterous and sharp ... An acerbic and gloriously evocative portrait of Seventies girlhood . Pitch-perfect (Sunday Telegraph)
Simultaneously funny - wryly and sometimes bleakly so - and painful to read. Levene perfectly captures the brutality of adolescence (Sunday Times)
An acutely observed and witty portrayal of the school exploits and growing pains of a 1970s teenager . Knowing and funny, this is St Trinian's for grown-ups ***** (The Lady)
A clever and extremely entertaining study of teenage claustrophobia (Independent)
Reflective, bittersweet and frequently funny (Metro)
Levene's sharply observed comedy mixes affectionate satire of the stylistic oddities of the time with an invigorating sparkle of real dislike for the petty tyrannies of parental and pedagogical authority (Evening Standard)
