RaveAltaOn the surface, we have a novel about privileged people behaving badly in the suburbs, with the lesser-privileged caught in the tailwind, and a few delicious moments of pettiness and clever revenge sprinkled throughout—mostly doled out by the teenagers.

There are just two equally inadequate answers, and you—we—have to decide which one it’s possible to accept.
