What I thought (may give it away)

Too much to say. Quality book, sure… YA fiction, yes… but is it more? Is it all that has been written about it? Not sure. I'm sure it was groundbreaking at the time, but now it feels lacking in depth. Didn't like Holden either. Thought it was all about the loss of his brother, not about teen angst. It was constantly brought up throughout.... hmmm.
