Oh, I shall be persevering! I think Grows Up upsets me as well because it's where all their dreams of wild success from school get dashed, especially Dimsie not being a doctor any more. I have enjoyed the reread, they're so funny. I was also surprised at the attitudes towards the make-up and corsets, it would have been seen as pretty much disgusting at the Chalet School.
