Question

What do you think of the Catcher in the Rye?

Answer 1

rambles on with out much direction... entertaining enough we suppose... there was some moral to the story but we'll have to re read it to find it... something about soul searching and the meaning of life maybe... was a long time ago that we read it... or was it just a song we herd...

Answer 2

I think the Catcher in the Rye was an exceptional book, but also difficult.  It was one of those books where you have to really think about what you just read after every chapter.  I think that there are things that J.D. Salinger put in there on purpose as morals, but also ones that people make up because they look too deep into it if you understand what I'm saying.  I think it was a very good book, but more for a class than recreation.
