This was loads of fun! Like Wimpy Kid, but in hell essentially. Made me chuckle. It’s full of puns, friendship and learning to look at life with a bit of optimism!

I like Brian Gordon, and a middle grader called Dante N. (full name is revealed in the book) Ferno sounded like an interesting character, so I requested to read this book.
My 10-year-old is a fan of witty books that read like diaries written by a child character.
So, another bonus.
I want to do this justice here - the concept and Dante are interesting. Lots of fire and brimstones in this book.
The target audience (7+) might enjoy this, however I expected more in terms of the plot, jokes and characterisation.
My child gave it 3.5/5.
I thought it was well-designed and had some funny jokes and cute moments but that the real potential of this was not fully explored.
2.5/5 from me.
