Reading Notes: Pacific Northwest Part B

Reading Notes: Pacific Northwest Part B

Part B followed the same writing style as Part A. Most of the stories were a little longer with more dialogue. The short stories of the Thunderbird were a standout. Coyote also made a bigger appearance in the second set of stories. Great way of presenting the subjects to the reader and easy to imagine the settings of the stories.

Reading Notes: Pacific Northwest Part A

Reading Notes: Pacific Northwest Part A

I liked these stories more compared to the southwestern stories I read last week. Although it is the same author the style is different. It could be also that I did not know much about the pacific northwest as well. These stories were all lengthed perfectly to go with the subject. Grey Fox, Kemush and Ashish really stood out. The origin stories of how the world and things like fire were made did a good job at revolving around the region.
