Bit of an odd time to bust out the encyclopedia but I appreciate the whale lesson Herman.

This book is funny! Did not expect that. Ishmael is not so objective or separated from the story because he talks to the reader which is something I've been told is a faux pas in writing >:( even though it works great here. When something weird happens it is nice that Ishmael starts it off with something like 'you wouldn't believe me, but its' true!'. Makes him feel like an actual person.
