That doesn't mean it isn't a terrible book.

I loved the Catcher in the Rye.
I don't know how to explain why, but I still have a yellowed, well worn copy on the bookshelf.

Agreed. It's pretty rare that I read a book without finishing it, but Catcher is one that I just couldn't finish.

A better book that is Catcher-ish is "A Separate Peace" by John Knowles.

I liked Catcher in the Rye, mainly because I had to stomach The Joy Luck Club, Kindred, Beloved and Julius Caesar before we read it. But I mean, I feel I could relate to Holden in some ways.

I've never read "Catcher", but if ASP is "better", maybe I never will. Just jump off the stupid tree and die already!!!! :|
