I read this book when I was in 8th grade and it was a big part of what for me to fall in love with books. I thought it was going to be old and boring but my brother was reading it for book report in high school and I just randomly picked it up one day and I immediately related to Holden. I’ve re-read it multiple times. It’s like a comfort read to me now.
I know Salinger had some problematic things come out but I will always love that book. The humor still gets me and it’s timeless.
