A review by ryan2changz
Franny and Zooey by J.D. Salinger
3.0
Who knew the creator of the hot TV show "Hollywoo' Stars and Celebrities: What Do They Know? Do They Know Things?? Let's Find Out" also wrote books?
It's "sprawling New Yorker style" so your mileage may vary. Zooey (the character) kind of gets insufferable at parts but i guess it wouldn't be Salinger if you didn't hate one of the characters. If this was just Franny (the short story), it would be pretty perfect, but Zooey (the last 2/3 of this book) have lots of moments that drag.
