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

funny sad slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? N/A
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

2.5

N/A to the question about if the book is plot or character driven because I dont think the book is driven at all. I dont think there is a plot and the characters dont do much aside from walking around and doing things that normal people do. I kind of feel like I just read about what some 16 year old kid from the 40's did for a couple days. Nothing really happened but I didnt give it one star because I thought the way it was written was sort of enjoyable and entertaining. I might even read it again some time just for that reason, kind of like dumb reality tv. It's pointless and it doesnt make you feel anything but its sort of fun anyway. They only parts that seemed worth something were the parts where Holden was with his sister
