A review by 4saradouglas
Deadline by Chris Crutcher

4.0

This is a touching book with a lot of humor mixed in. Crutcher certainly never lacks for plot. The relationship between the two brothers in this book is wonderful to read, but the parents are almost non-entities and should have been written in more depth. Dallas is a good character, but reminds me too much of Jennifer in Crutcher's Chinese Handcuffs. I think Crutcher needs to mix it up a little more so that we'll continue to read his works; but I can't say he's not talented!
