The Catcher in the Rye - Rated Nothing Special
Having heard so much about this book I had been looking forward to reading Catcher in the Rye but once I did I was very disappointed.
I found it hard to stay interested in the story. I didn't feel that it flowed very well and it wasn't too descriptive. Some variety in the use of adjectives would also have been quite nice. I got quite sick of everyone being described as old. 'Old Phoebe', 'Old Sally', 'Old Jane' etc.
I can see why this book was banned in the 1950's but in this day and age I didn't find the plot too rebellious and it left me cold.
