5/13/2023 0 Comments Book whale talk![]() The setting, for one thing they're all set in or around Spokane, Washington. There are many similarities between this novel (which I believe is one of Crutcher's best known), and the two others that I read, Staying Fat for Sarah Byrnes and Chinese Handcuffs. I read two other Crutcher novels for the YA course that I took as an undergrad. But, like other Crutcher works that I've read, it's about so much more than sports, though the characters are gifted athletes. We're supposed to choose texts that cover different genres, so I guess this one would fall under "sports" literature. Whale Talk wasn't specifically assigned, but I read it as one of my "independent choice" options. This book is another one that I read for my YA lit class. I'm still feeling a little achy as I write this.hopefully I feel better in the morning, because I have another long week ahead of me! Oh, well, 26 isn't that big of a deal anyway, and I can always push my canceled plans to next weekend. ![]() The one positive thing that I can say about being sick (with a head cold) during my birthday weekend is that I had plenty of time to read. ![]()
