The Catcher In The Rye
I am close to finishing the book The Catcher In The Rye and it is a great classic. Holden is one of my favorite book characters. He's really grown on me and I'm starting to get who he is. I like how he handles other people even though he gets his ass kicked in between most of the chapters. He mouths off to pretty much everyone he knows. He doesn't deal with "morons. Even though he's dropped out of three colleges he seems to have more knowledge about the world then anyone else. He knows who's a phony and who's real and who's a moron and who's a genius, so I guess you could say he knows what he's talking about when he mouths off to you. But he's a pacifist so if he starts to fight with someone he doesn't fight back. They usually punch him once and he goes down. But he has dreams of putting everything down and just moving away and living in the mountains or someplace away from society. I'm too used to living in the city so if I were to move away and live in solitude I'd probably go insane.
