While I can appreciate why some people like this book, I really can - I just don't think it's really all that great. I was pretty disappointed. It has its merits and probably was extremely groundbreaking for it's time but it really didn't really have that lasting effect that it does for most people for me. (  ) branimal | Dec 21, 2009 |  I have heard more people tell me that they identify with Holden Caulfield as a teenager than any other person in literature or movies. This story of a teenager who leaves school to get out into the city and just let loose. He finds out that life is not as easy as he thought it might be as he runs into trouble at every turn. The one bright spot of this young boy is the love he shows for his little sister. As much as he hates everybody and everything around him (much like most teenagers do), he has a sincere deep love for his baby sister and will do anything to protect her. Holden Caulfield is more real and true to what so many teenagers are like and feel that it is hard NOT to identify with at least some part of him. He has a pessimistic view on life and a rotten cursing vocabulary - but you have to acknowledge his ability to speak his mind and let the reader into his true thoughts, even if he hides them from everyone else. (  ) calvetti | Dec 21, 2009 | It was an interesting and captivating story of real life struggles that everyone can relate to. ( ) noseworthy | Dec 16, 2009 | I gave this book the 50 page benefit of the doubt. But I couldn't finish it. The narrator just annoyed the heck out of me. (  ) Zommbie1 | Dec 14, 2009 | Hello. My name is 'Catcher in the Rye'. You might remember me from 9th-grade English-class. Anyway, I'm still here and I'm still a part of the Western Canon. Sure, almost nobody over the age of 18 reads me anymore. But, you can't fault a guy for briefly replacing sex and binge-drinking in the minds of our nation's teenagers. I just wish that those kids would write better book reports about me.(Oh, and that whole "identifying-with-Holden-Caulfield-to-such-a-degree-that-I-turn-Emo-and-grow-asymmetrical-bangs-and-start-obsessing-about-teenage-angst-and-how-my-parents-just-don't-get-me" thing....sorry about that.)

"If you really want to hear about it, the first thing you'll probably want to know is where I was born and what my lousy childhood was like, and how my parents were occupied and all before they had me, and all that David Copperfield kind of crap, but I don't feel like going into it, if you want to know the truth. In the first place, that stuff bores me, and in the second place, my parents would have about two hemorrhages apiece if I told anything pretty personal about them."
His constant wry observations about what he encounters, from teachers to phonies (the two of course are not mutually exclusive) capture the essence of the eternal teenage experience of alienation.
