Review: I can't recommend this book for YA, which is sad
Rating: 2 out of 5

The first book in this series had me caught from the opening pages - which is why I like to read YA fiction, frankly - the action starts with the first page.  However this book strings together one drinking party with another, and while the interplay between the characters was realistic (based on my teen clients) the total acceptance that everyone was smoking weed, drinking, and having sex makes this a book I can't recommend for anyone.  I am well aware that today's teens are far different from those of my generation, and yet, I wonder if books in which the casual sex and drug abuse are accepted as normal are helping the growing problems with our teens..........the ones that have to do with heartbreak and abandonment and drug abuse.  So, I can't join the 5-star crowd on this one.
