the catcher in the rye

• "i just finished reading that goddam book called 'the catcher in the rye'. boy, am i angry. i was damn near throwing it out of the window. not because i didn't like it or anything. i had no high expectations for the book anyway. only thing i knew about it was it was kind of popular around, y'know. once in a while someone talks about it or it gets mentioned in some movie. even the chinese cashier guy in that bookstore told me that it was a great book. he said he read it in 3rd grade. 3rd grade for chrissake. i felt kinda sorry for him. i remember i told him i was a late starter or something. i didn't like that i told him that though. he didn't care but i still wish i hadn't told him that. i might have as well told him that i was buying it as a present for someone. but after reading the whole thing, boy, i could throw the book right to that cashier's 3rd grade chinese face. that caulfield kid, supposed to be the hotshot guy in the book. he spends entire 250 pages telling how bad his vocabulary is and yet how good he's at english and how much he loves reading books at the same time. he's really a hypocrite piece of crap. i mean it. take his despise for who he calls 'phonies'. he bitches about how he hates boring people who tell load of crap about things over and over and yet he doesn't shut his goddam trap for two hundred pages about his goddamn hat and stuff. forget the book itself for once. look at that website, sozluk. look at what people who liked the book wrote about it. just paragraphs from the book itself. how insightful for god's sake. it really proves that you read the book. it really does. just kind of thing that caulfield kid would really like. i mean it. he would sincerely love you. he would especially fall in love with how you bitch about all that conspiracy kind of crap. boy do i feel sorry reading it."
