Last night I finished The Inferno Collection. I thought I would love a book about a secret library collection, and I would have, had this book had anything to do with that. I think the inferno collection was mentioned a few times throughout the book, but the story was more about Kim's hidden past and some deaths on campus. I thought the story focused way too much on Kim's feelings and not enough on the main idea of the book. Plus the writing was kind of clique at times and jumped around a lot. And don't even get me started on the epilogue, which sounded like it was written by a completely different author. I give it 1.5 stars out of 5 and don't recommend it.
Now on to the books Lindsey suggested. I am about 1/2 way through Eleanor & Park already and I am loving it. It's a book that I could sit down and read in one day if I didn't have anything else to do. I almost thought I could read it all on the way home from Iowa City, but I was getting car sick.

Bummer about this book. But so glad you're liking Eleanor & Park. The friend I borrowed it from loved it until the ending, but I even appreciated the ending.
