this is a review of 'The Catcher in the Rye'. thanking kiki for the recommendation :)
it's terrific.
trust me. lol.
Holden Caulfield. I am a fan. i'm in love with the protagonist. it's like reading about myself but in the extreme (and i have a freaking suspicion everyone will feel the same way, which is somewhat annoying to know). and if not everyone identifies with him, then i find it quite scary to be told that you're heading down a bottomless pit and ending up a depressive who hates everything and everybody, who doesn't contribute, who's in my opinion very stupid. but yes, as i said, he is extreme. and that's where i hate him. he is so extreme in his opinions that he calls everyone 'phony' and i think sometimes that makes him act 'phony' too.
overall, thank goodness it was an enlightening read in that sense (that it warns me from following that road).
i'd give it full five smileys :] :] :] :] :]
that wasn't a very helpful review, was it? shucks. i have three more coming. hahaha. don't say i didn't warn you. they won't be in a row, though.
