I don't remember having bought even a single copy but somehow I have 5 copies of Catcher in the Rye, and I've never I've read it.
How many people have you assassinated?
Did you sign the inside of any of these books?
I always forget Patrick Stewart was in that film.
I tried to read it, I really did. I have a rule -- read the first 10% of the book, and if it doesn't hook me, I can give up. Catcher in the Rye is the only book I've given up on
Good on ya. The whole book is like that.
I read it. I read the whole damn book. I kept waiting for something to happen. Nothing really did. 1/10
I enjoyed it as a teenager, I don’t know if I would like it now.
I think I'm in the minority here, but I read it and thought it was great. Worth a go IMO.
Maybe you could you read 8too!
