the extremely slow pacing of some parts in the book make it a slog to get through, but the catcher in the rye is overall still an intriguing story with lots of memorable and emotionally impactful highlights.

Considering book content available to minors in school today, banning this classic is hypocritical and may draw attention to this sad book.
