The Cricket Term Puffin Books Antonia Forest 9780140311372 Books

For someone who loves boarding school stories for girls I'm amazed it took me so long to discover Antonia Forest. I've never come across anyone who writes quite like her - she manages to avoid falling into the usual cliches of boarding school life (though I must admit I DO love those cliches) and you never feel quite certain that everything will work out smoothly for Nicola, the heroine.

Since there is no review here I'll briefly describe the book for those wondering where it comes in the series:

Twins Nicola and Lawrie return to school. Lawrie is obssessed with acting Caliban in the school play 'The Tempest' but has been given the part of Ariel instead. Nicola is focusing on cricket until some unwelcome news comes which makes her fear for her future at the school. Ginty is not given a part in the play but concentrates on her swimming/diving. Ann leaves the Guides as she is now too old to go on. Rowan is working on the farm. Karen (Kay) is married to an older man and a stepmum to 3 children. She is living in a farmhouse near the Marlows ...

I was lucky enough to pick up this copy incredibly cheaply but I'm a bit upset to find that most of her books are out of print and incredibly expensive to buy. Still after completing my Chalet School collection I need a new challenge!
