What I Was

  • Written by: Meg Rosoff
  • Age group: 14+

I was at boarding school in East Anglia, my third. I didn't want to be there. But if there had been no school, there would be no Finn. He lived in a hut on the coast. He was like the hut, in fact – it took a while for both of them to warm up. But that is all I longed for. Finn, warming to me. A nod. Half a smile. Asking me to help on the boat. Not asking me to leave. I didn't want it to end. Now I am waiting for the end, and looking back to the beginning.

Haunting, intense and with a surprising twist in the tale – this is unlike anything you will have read before . . .

  • What you might say when giving this surprise:

    Much more than a simple story of friendship
    How life can change!

    Maximum number of characters: 140
