Recensione:
“Period 8 is the best of Crutcher: warmth, humor, and spot-on teen reality, but coupled with terrifying intensity and a shocking ending.” (Laurie Halse Anderson, author of Speak and Chains)
Praise for Deadline: “As usual, Crutcher does not hesitate to incorporate serious subject matter within an engaging first-person narrative.” (Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA) (starred review))
“Crutcher uses dark humor and self-deprecation effectively to avoid maudlin situations, and teens will appreciate the respectful tone of the work.” (School Library Journal)
Praise for Whale Talk: “Crutcher offers an unusual yet resonant mixture of black comedy and tragedy that lays bare the superficiality of the high school scene.” (Publishers Weekly (starred review))
“Cataclysmic and triumphant.” (Kirkus Reviews)
