YA
Sick of her conservative father and boring friends, seventeen-year-old Emma befriends Siobhan, a charismatic troublemaker who promises to show Emma a good time. While Emma struggles to shed her good-girl persona, the girls' friendship turns slowly destructive. Some conflicts lean too heavily on preventable misunderstandings, but Emma's strong narrative voice propels this private-school romp to a harrowing, violent conclusion.
