I really enjoyed this book. I love fairy tale retellings, and this is a modern-day take on Rupunzel (well, modern enough - it's set in the 1960s at an all-girls English boarding school). I liked the way the author wrote, it flowed very nicely - it's a short book, so it's naturally quick to read, but the writing made it quite difficult to put down. The characters had distinct personalities, and I liked the three main girls a lot. I'd love to read the other books in this trilogy.
