The first book in the "Malory Towers" series, all about the famous boarding school. Darrell is all packed and ready to head off to her new school, but has she made sure to bring a lid for her temper?

(3.25/5) 1 hour 24 minutes - Very hard to rate and review a book I read multiple times as a child, but an enjoyable read if only because of the nostalgia it brings. It is strange to read it now and compare it to how I viewed it as a child. Darrell, the main character, is a lot less perfect than I remember.The writing is engaging, if a little strange, but it was written for the children of the 1940s so that's to be expected.

I loved this reread just as much as the first time I read it as a child. I used to have the whole series on cassette tape as well and couldn’t fall asleep without it on for a long time! The only problem was I would have to get out of bed to switch the tape over so I didn’t really sleep until the last half of each book 😂
The one thing I like about Malory towers (from what I remember of the whole series) is that it still holds up now. No homophobia or racism etc. Just a good old fashioned boarding school story. The girls were really mean in this first book though which I’d forgotten about. I think most characters grew a lot in this first book and I know there’s more growth to come!
