A clever story about the complexity and supression of trauma in your youth, anxiety, depression, loneliness and relationships. This classic is timeless and intriguing but also chaotic and boring. I´m gonna be really honest here... While the novel is so smart, fast paced and humorous it tends to be repetitive. The repetitive language was great though! Phony, goddam, moron and so many others made it unique and funny. What I mean are scenes that bring across the same point over and over again. That´s why reading it can be "dry" and boring. Holden (MC) keeps challenging the reader with his annoyance towards everything. That can be hard to bear through but also funny. His hatred made me laugh out loud a few times because it was so hilarious! Lastly I want to mention that there are problematic statements especially about women and girlhood that definitely aren´t okay but the novel is 70+ years old so based on aged opinions. 
I understand people that loved this or hated it but I have to say it´s really clever wether you enjoy this novel or not!
