    Found the book really boring and pointless.... and Holden is just a negative character. Not my interest i guess...

    This is one of those American classics that will be marked in time such as Grapes of Wrath, To Kill a Mockingbird, Catch 22, and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. The late J.D. managed to capture the restless spirit of the youth that was to explode over the following decade after suppression and institutional resistance to the idea that may the kids have something to b---- about. Holden certainly makes a clear case for this.

    I have also heard from certain other people that they didn't enjoy this book that much. I don't think it compares to The Great Gatsby since they are two v4ery different periods and two very different ploitsa. Perhaps people didn't like it since it was written almost at the beginning of the 60's moivement and almost was a precursor to the rebellios nature of students on cellge campuses reminiscent with Holden's dissatisfaction about life.

    This is a great book. It kind of puts into perspective from someone technically "crazy" but, it let's you actually see what life for him is like. It is something that kind of left me thinking.i would recommend this book to everyone
