Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Hard to turn pages sometimes
Review: This book was not my favorite just because it was depressing. He looked to the negative things and was seldom happy. I liked the fact that he liked to help[ others.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: catcher
Review: Have you ever read a book, and halfway through realized you were a different person than when you started it? Salinger converses with the reader as if he is a close friend and that he, an individual, is understood by the author. Everyone should be forced to read this book, especially at such a low cover price.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Catcher in the Rye is a Classic for a good reason.
Review: Catcher has a beautifully written monologue tone. The first page of the novel is like no other, "who is this person addressing me," the reader thinks. Holden Caulfield and his apathetic attitude reach out and tell the reader to take a look at this - this person is just like me in this manner, or that manner. I hope that everyone can find a peice of themselves in Holden Caulfield.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's the best book I've ever read!!
Review: Catcher in the Rye describes every teen at one point in their life. It describes the heartache and depression every teen goes through. But it also has the light hearted slap-stick comedy that every person does every day. An all around wonderful book that everyone needs to read in their lifetime and they will identify with it, too!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: I think this book is a lot deeper than we can perceive.
Review: At first Holden seemed to be the kid nobody liked but after a while you find yourself mad at people who try to hurt him.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best and most down-to-earth book ever.
Review: J.D. Salinger has a very unique writting style. Instead of making his books sound perfect and boring he makes you feel like this is an actual person talking to you. The Catcher In the Rye is no exception.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: it was incredible
Review: Catcher in the Rye was a book for teenagers to adult. I loved the part when his friend lets one in church!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: By far my absolute favorite novel!
Review: I'm a 17 year old girl, and one might think I can't possibly have read enough books to choose an all time favorite, but I believe I have. On whim, I picked up this book in New York City, and day or so later had finished it. It's the novel I read when I'm bored. It's the novel I take with me everywhere. I always keep it near me. I've underlined things, I've quoted it in my articles for the school newspaper. Now I sound like I'm obsessed, but I'm not. The storyline isn't something everyone can relate with, yet there is a sense of relation when you finish the book. A person almost hopes that he or she would have acted the same way if put in Holden's situation, because he makes it so amusing. This is worth the 5 stars!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A very Exiting book
Review: I am a teenager and normaly, books aren't very amusing to me. But one day I took a glance inside this book and I loved it. It was very funny,well written and I recomend it to anyone, especialy teenagers.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: End equal Middle
Review: Would have rather read something else. I really didn't like the book. To me the ending just stoped and it left many questions unanswered. Holdens constant whining and complaining really bugged me, and it drove me nuts how he would always repeat himself over and over again. One part that I liked is when he is at home with Phoebe, and they are in her room dancing to the music. Other then that part, the book didn't interest me that much.
