Better Than Running at Night (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780618250738)

Having left behind the melodrama of her solitary high school days--and the beheaded martyrs in her paintings--Ellie arrives at the New England College of Art and Design. Looking forward to the opportunity to recreate herself and her art, she begins her first day by dirty dancing with the Devil. Then she makes out with him. Ellie soon learns a lot about herself in this story about independence, trust, and boys.
