On her way, reluctantly, to a boarding school in present-day England, Flora suddenly finds herself in 1935, the new girl at St. Winifred's, having been summoned via a magic spell by her new dormitory mates.

A second Kate Saunders book for my “I need something diverting and unchallenging but not totally stupid to read” mood. It fit that bill well enough. The 1935 school setting was well done and Flora's gradual adaptation to her new circumstances, and her seeing sides of herself and others she hadn't before, fit believably into the story arc. The one thing that felt very “off” to me was that the point of the time-travel episode was to make Flora's grandmother a better person, one who THINKS OF OTHER PEOPLE, but then she still leaves her baby son??? That made no sense.
