One of the few books that I've started and never finished...

Book #8: The Catcher in the Rye by: J.D. Salinger

This book. I could not even read it. It was so incredibly boring that I just had to stop. I mean, I've read boring books before (the old man and the sea) but I only read those because it was absolutely required as it was a class read book. And this? I made it to page thirty before completely giving up. It was basically about this kid who complained about everything and everyone around him. Thend. That's all that happened in THIRTY pages! So, I quit reading it and am now in the midst of Wuthering Heights. Which, needless to say, is a much better book. Also, prolly needless to say, I don't recommend this book. At all. Not even a little.  Have a good day!

Be kind to one another!

  2. I just couldn't handle it! It was so mind numbingly boring during the entire 30 pages I read! And it took me a week to read those! Catcher in the Rye just isn't for me. I apologize.
