So, I just got this as a present. Feels like they were going for something safe that's highly rated.
Is this actually a good book? From what I gathered, this is a book that was important for Americans who were teenagers in the 50s-60s. But I'm none of those.
He rapes his sister, Phoebe
It's still relevant now.
I read it this year and can relate with Holden despite knowing that he's a character we are supposed to empathize with.
Just read it, it's not even long.
It's a teenagers book.
Just fucking read it already
read it and post here. its short as fuck
it's relevant if you have or have had depression.

ignore the memes, it's great, an all-timer, and if you can't relate you are dead inside
Just got this too, i planned on reading it next week. Assuming i like it, is any of Salinger's other work worth it?

Why don't you read it to find out? Can't you form your own opinions?

Theres no rape. The book is fun, but not too relevant.
