Cathcher in the Rye

What would you do if you skipped shcool?

In The Catcher in the Rye, by D. J. Salinger, Holden decides there is no reason to wait till his parents get the letter informing them he was being kicked out of shcool (the fifth one) to leave, but takes off two days early to spend some time in the town.

Written in a true teenage boy's voice, it seems as if you are hearing the story first hand from a friend. You learn the way he thinks and talks as he tells his stories of bars, hotels, and his family.

If you like listening to your friends tell their stories of crazy adventures, add this classic to your list.
