A book review by Madeline Soucie
Taking place in the '80s, Eleanor & Park is about two high school students who both stand out and as a result become an unlikely couple. It's a sweet story.
Eleanor's new
to the high school. She's big and has crazy, unruly red hair. Plus she doesn't
try to fit in -- she dresses outside the norm.
Park is Asian
and isn't quite at the bottom of the social ladder where he gets picked on so survives when others are targeted instead of him.
When Eleanor
needs a seat on the bus and the only one available is Park's, the two will
slowly bond over comic books and music and come
to share a love story neither thought they'd be able to have.
