The Tenth Circle
E2 [Curious] -- What are you reading?
BT -- The The Tenth Circle, by Jodi Picoult.
E2 [Even more Curious]-- Is it a *graphic novel*?
BT [laughing] -- Oh, no. One of the main characters is a comic book illustrator. [Holds up pages for E2's view] These are his work...
Leave it to E2 to know the technical term for a book filled with comics.
*Graphic Novel*
Who talks like that?
Well, it would seem that I'm going to have to start.
I could try to explain to you why I couldn't put this book down this weekend.
How my weekend was so fabulous partially because it was interwoven with my enjoyment of this book. How it told a story of such truly good-intentioned, hurt, and flawed humanity that I fell in love with all of the characters and found myself cheering for them individually, even while they took actions that eventually (and predictably) hurt each other.
Or, I could just point you to the reviews: http://www.jodipicoult.com/the-tenth-circle.html.
It's just a great story. AND, it's got cool comic drawings.
What more could you want?
