The HHS Reads book for January is The Tenth Circle by Jodi Picoult, a story of one family's journey through their own version of Dante's Inferno. When fourteen-year-old Trixie Stone, daughter of comic book illustrator Daniel and Dante professor Laura, accuses her boyfriend of rape, all the family's demons are brought to light. This is reflected in the graphic-novel illustrations interwoven throughout the novel, Daniel's artistic interpretation of the trials his family is going through, and how his own past influences the present.
Extra copies are available now at the library, so be sure to stop in to claim your own! We will be discussing the book on Thursday, January 10th during all three lunch periods.
