Title: I'm sorry!!!!
Review: I'm sorry, but I didn't like this book. It is supposed to be some amazing adventure into the everyday life of a teenager, full of shortcomings, pressures, angst and grief. IT WAS NONE OF THAT. I thought that it was a horrible peice of literature. I believe that it showed a whiny young man, who couldn't take responsibility for himself. He stayed mired in this self-pity and couldn't see why nothing went his way. I didn't care for this book at all. I beleive that the only reason that it caught fire was because it was so "bad" when it was published that it was banned. This being banned added a little mystique to it. Everyone read it and it did well. Oh, by the way, so there is no misinterpretation of my comments, I am a 17 year old male in California. Yes, a teenager actually hated the Catcher in the Rye. AMAZING! I welcome any comments at my e-mail address: hoss@neworld.ne
