Miya reviewed The Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger
Like Hemingway but much more modern.
5 stars
This book resonated much too well with me.
Paperback, 224 pages
Undetermined language
Story of Holden Caufield with his idiosyncrasies, penetrating insight, confusion, sensitivity and negativism. Holden, knowing he is to be expelled from school, decides to leave early. He spends three days in New York City and tells the story of what he did and suffered there.
This book resonated much too well with me.
I enjoyed the writing style of this book and found it mildly humourous and relatable. I fully annotated the copy I was reading and overall I have the most tags for funny, relatable, and quote. I would recommend everyone read it once but it is not on my favorite list.
