Who is to blame when a sixteen year old girl gets wasted on illicit alcohol and drugs at a slumber party, falls through a glass table and ends up losing her eye? Are the parents of the girl hosting the party responsible? Only in America. Isn’t SHE a bit responsible? Certainly her appalling friends are responsible for her subsequent loss of social status and confidence, but no one gets away unscathed in this scenario. The writing is good, heading for Liane Moriarty standard but never quite getting there. Most of the characters are unlikeable but you’ll want to know how it ends. A step up from the bog standard thriller but not a classic.
