If ever a book described my teen angst, it was this one. Holden is me. Troubled by family life, emotional demons, and too smart for his own good. Holden's psychiatric sessions are cleverly hidden and a tale of his adventures in school and traveling around NYC. As a young child, I empathized with him. As a teen, I felt like him. As a young adult I was happy I found my way. Every time, I read it over I find a new reason to love Salinger.

Read for school, around 1979 or 1980. Did not like at all -- felt vulgar and depressing. Would probably experience it differently today but have no desire to reread. Let those who love it enjoy it, but if you didn't like it don't feel guilty.
