A review by thevalleyslily
The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger

1.0

There isn't a single thing I liked about this book, not the language, not the writing style, and definitely not the whiniest, most annoying narrator/main character. To him, everyone is phony, everything is lousy. His journey started nowhere, went nowhere and ended nowhere and while I can see what it was getting at (the process of losing childhood's innocence and growing up is painful and depressing at times), this book went about it in the least appealing way.
