Hab es gerne und auch schnell gelesen was der Sprache geschuldet ist. Unterhaltsam aber auch nicht mehr.
Schöner Pageturner
One of my most favorite books. I think JD Salinger captured really well the feeling of transition from teenage years into adult life. Also the book shows the teenage struggle to understand oneself
Read it at school and even at that time I was wondering what was so special about the f-word, because even in the late 80s, there was nothing special about it in my country. Coming of age story of Holden Caulfield and his struggles with teenage life.
This is really hard to rate because I didn’t really care for this book. Also didn’t care for the main character (or any other characters) it’s not bad but it’s certainly not good.
