laurelthebooks 's review for:

The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger
1.0

I can appreciate what this has done for the genre, but every single time I have to read this I hate it more and more.

There are aspects of this books that I can enjoy discussing, but actually reading it is a close to painful experience for me. I cannot stand Holden Caulfield's narration, it feels like dragging nails through my brain.

I know others love it, but it really, truly is not for me.
