Sneak Peek:
Chapter 1: Announcement
Henry Bloom had English first lesson of the morning on Tuesdays. Tuesday was Henry's least favourite day, as he had double history after lunch with Mr Dickhead. But, luckily, English was Henry's favourite class. Henry loved books, always had and the ability to study them at length was all he'd ever wanted. So when he'd gotten an A* at GCSE and told he could continue at A-level, he'd been thrilled. His English teacher at GCSE had been amazing. Mr Kemp had been fantastic, he knew all there was to know about books and his enthusiasm was unrivalled. So Henry had been gutted when he'd been told that he was getting the new English teacher for A-level. But, unbelievably, he ended up liking his new teacher even better than Mr Kemp.
His initial impression had been sceptical. She was new and young, only 24 or 25 by the looks of her. She had chocolate brown eyes and was very short. Her flowing brown hair just tickled her shoulders and was just tinged with honey and ginger, remnants of dying her hair blonde and red at university she informed him when he asked. When she leaned in, she smelled of strawberries and Henry hated strawberries. So he wasn't looking forward to it. She was nervous and shy and none of this filled him with courage. But once she started talking, Henry let his scepticism melt away. She knew books. She knew books better than she knew herself, Henry sensed. The passion in her voice filled him with joy and belief and he found himself locked on her every word. Miss Oswald knew her shit.
That's all for now. Fairly mundane stuff but the first chapter was very difficult to find anything spoiler free. Check back soon, Healing is coming sooner than you might think.
