I remembered this book yesterday when I heard the author interviewed on The Diane Rheam show on NPR. This is a twisty, turny, crazy book. It is about an old, well established boys school in England and how it is sabotaged. It is dark at times and will surprise you several times. The author also wrote Chocolat which I would love to read. My sister hated the book, but I found it intriguing, so I guess it isn't for everyone.

I read this book on your recommendation last year. It was fun and I liked getting into the twists. Wouldn't say that I loved it (sometimes the narration style bugged, and I admit I felt like the ending was a little forced) but mostly it was very fun. It would be a great read for an airplane trip or beach vacation when you just want something for pure entertainment.
