3rd (and last?) post for catcher

Holden seems to try and dislike people and find their weaknesses and bad qualities. The only people he seems to care for are his dead brother and his sister Phoebe who he has a very close relationship with. Holden is also fascinated and picks up the smallest things including the ponds at the pond. I have almost finished the book but I still find it to my disliking.

Haven't read much more past the half-way point but chapter 13 and 14 are at least unexpected. One can tell that Holden is very emotional and they change quickly. He still takes blame for his brother's death and can become very lonely. He regrets many things and I fell that he is living in the past.

1st blog-1st half catcher

I thought the first half of the book as just okay. I was a different setting and topic than most books I have read but it was also extremely boring as there was mostly just dialogue and written in a odd way for me. I am wondering exactly where Percey is located and more details about the school and dorm.
