The Catcher in the Rye

Reader reviewed by Laura

I'm fairly undecided as to how I feel about this book. As it was well
written and considered one of the classics I somehow found my self
anxious to get to the end, to just finish it already. I don't think I
really related to the main character, which is possibly why this novel
seem to lay flat for the most part for me. I'm having a hard time
understanding how this is considered a classic. I guess for it's time
it is pretty edgy but does edginess grant this such a high place in the
literary hall of fame?? Maybe it's just me......
