The Tenth Circle - Discussion and Links

We're all really excited to be discussing The Tenth Circle with you tomorrow! We'll be seeing you at lunch, or if you have thoughts to share, you're welcome to post them in comments for further discussion here on the blog.

Over in the sidebar, there is a link to Jodi Picoult's website for this book. There you can find a discussion guide we'll be looking at for tomorrow, a podcast on inspiration, and more.

Ms. Bennett also found this link which we thought might be of interest. It's a multimedia exploration and explanation of all the elements in Dante's Inferno, one of the major inspirations for Picoult's book. It's a good tool to see how many of the different sins that represent each level Picoult has found a way to focus on with different elements of the story, and to see how many 'levels of hell' she puts the Stone family through.

I liked this one too. I read it really far in advance and had forgotten a lot about it so I didn't have a lot of input. That will be changing in the future.
