One of the greatest novels ever published

Date of Review:  Jul 11, 2001
The Bottom Line: This is one of the greatest novels of all time. A must read for everyone. Go read this book!
Review: This is one of the greatest novels of all time. A must read for everyone. Holden Caulfield is a character that cannot be explained by words alone; he can only truly be illuminated in the mind of the reader.
Excerpts from the novel, by J.D...

The Catcher in the Rye

Date of Review:  Sep 16, 2000
Review: The Catcher in the Rye is probably the most easy reading book of all time. If you like books with points to them, this isn't one, but it is still a great book! It is about a boy named Holden Caufield. He has just flunked out of his very expensive...

A Great Book

Date of Review:  Dec 1, 2002
The Bottom Line: This book deserves to be read by all.
Review: The catcher in the rye is a brilliant masterpiece which every teenager in America should be required to read. The book gives an alternate perspective on things which in some ways can make sense. It challenges some of our society's ideas and beliefs...

Depressing, touching, and a great read

Date of Review:  Jan 25, 2000
Review: In my junior year of high school I finally read a novel that related to my life and my experiences. The knowledge I gained from The Catcher in the Rye greatly influenced the way in which I view the world and the way I now view myself. This novel...

Sink into Salinger

Date of Review:  Jan 17, 2000
Review: Not only is J.D. Salinger my favorite author of all time and a great example of American Literature in the history of this fine nation, but he's also a classic writer. His story goes far and beyond the life of Holden Caufield, a high school aged...

This book killed me.

Date of Review:  May 4, 2003
The Bottom Line: I would very much recommend this book. The Catcher in the Rye will captivate you and keep you reading until the last page.
Review: J.D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye is a well-known classic story. It is mainly an excerpt from Holden Caulfield, the narrator's, life. He tells it in great detail using a lot of crude language, (beware if you are offended by this.) Some of the...

I failed miserably in my attempts to be Holden Caufield

Date of Review:  Mar 11, 2002
The Bottom Line: I am Holden Caufield, and so are you. Read Catcher in the Rye and you will understand.
Review: Ordinarily, since there are some 50+ other reviews of this book, I wouldn't bother throwing in my own $.02 about Catcher in the Rye. But I'm going to anyway, because it happens to be, in my opinion, one of the most interesting books I have ever read...

Holden's life

Date of Review:  Jun 1, 2003
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this book to anyone because the book is a great view through a preteen's mind and eyes.
Review: I believe this was a good book to read about someone struggling through their preteen life. It gave a great eye opener on some of the sings we struggled as children turning into adults.

As Holden was ending his first semester of school he...

The death of innocence

Date of Review:  May 10, 2004
Review: One of Salinger's best acclaimed pieces of literature. A captivating story cleverly laden with symbolism pertaining to childhood, innocence, and coming of age. This story should have a place on everyone's bookshelf.
