Arriving alone for winter session at the New England College of Art and Design, Ellie finds the ideal opportunity. In her first days she begins dirty dancing with the Devil. Then she makes out with him. A story about independence, trust, and boys. (read review)

I borrowed this book from my best friend and I really enjoyed it. I love Hillary Frank's descriptions. The story plot was very good and I love the references to Ivan The Terrible and His Son Ivan. I also found the little drawings in the book very amusing.

    So do ALL first year Art students have the exact same experience or what? This book hit home way too close for me. Just couldn't believe how she hit the nail on the head- I mean, she must have gone through this experience... she couldn't have just made all of that up... (unless she was following me... oooo, freaky thought)
