Great NEWS!!!!!!!! except not. Ben's doctor has made him agree to tell someone about the fact that he's dying. That person is not anyone who knows him personally, but another doctor, from another county. Because out of all of Trout, Idaho's 943 citizens none of them are psychologists, or psychiatrists . However, Trout has a big enough high school to fill a state-winning football team. For some reason this just doesn't seem like it could happen. But perhaps in Trout, Idaho there's nothing to do but play football.
So, Ben's psychologist, Marla Dawson is Ben's new confidant. She, like Ben's doctor is concerned about him not telling ANYONE. GAH!!!! Why doesn't this boy realize that he's going to hurt his mom, dad, and brother. But he is concerned about it a little, but I wish that he would just act on it.
I'm still having problems trusting this author, Chris Crutcher. I'm just not into his style at the moment... This book should be a breeze but I feel that I'm becoming too critically negative about it. I suppose I should just get over myself and push through it. Huh?
