I recently read 'A Catcher in the Rye' and hated it. Holden is a repetitive, egotistic cunt who's scared of growing up in a world where everyone is phony. Why would someone write a book about it? I thought it would get better towards the end but I was horribly wrong. However, if you want to read a book about a psychologically unstable 1950's wannabe troll, then this is the book for you.
tl;dr 'A Catcher in the Rye', it sucked.
EDIT: Oh yeah and it's a timeless classic and all that, I just hated it because I'm a douche like that
