Reviews of Class: The Secret Diary of a Teacher in Turmoil

I love this book! It's funny, page-turning and addictive … just like Malory Towers for grown-ups Sophie Kinsella I have been waiting twenty-five years for someone to write a bloody brilliant boarding school book, stuffed full of unforgettable characters, thrilling adventures and angst – and here it is. Hurrah for Jane Beaton! Lisa Jewell A wonderful first novel that had me in tears and fits of laughter. Definitely an A*!' Chris Manby 'If you were a fan of the Mallory Towers or St Clare's books in your – ahem – youth, you'll love this modern boarding school-based tale … Top of the class!' **** Closer 'Aimed at fans of Malory Towers, this is a trashy, funny revisitation of the "best" years of your life: school'
