Yesterday I finished half of "The Catcher in the Rye." Everyone older that I've talked to has said that this book is amazing. I haven't gotten to see how great it is yet and I'm already halfway through, so I'm sort of losing faith. I haven't hit the climax yet however, so it should get better. Overall, it's good so far, just didn't blow me away. I like Holden's character. I think he's very in touch with his age, like most 22 year olds are. He smokes, drinks, talks about sex and goes to strip clubs. It's very much like the real world, because a young guy does/experiments with all those things. I have to admit that I'm very much looking forward to what's going to happen with Jane and Holden. It seems that he's in love with what he knows of her, but maybe things have changed. Maybe they see each other and fall in love all over again. I feel as if this book has a lot to do with love, so hopefully something very romantic will happen, because romance entices me when it comes to books. There's nothing better than reading about people falling madly in love, except for the fact that it makes you hate your life that much more, because the most love you have in your life is from you're parents. :]
you know you love me

Hello "Gossip Girl",
This was a very nice blog, might turn some away from the book however. It is nice that you have faith in this piece of literature, and it seems like mayb Catcher will have a nice love twist. I also think that Jane adds a nice element to the book and I hope that you enjoy it as you go along
God is love,

I agree that I don't see where this book is going. It seems like it's just going to be Holden talking about things and going out in the city for 200 pages. I think Holden's character is weird, though.
