I read it in Middle School for my Summer reading. That and I know what you did last summer. (The two best books of the school summer reading list at that time) And both sucked.GrumpyCatFace wrote:Yep, Catcher in the Rye was Lennon.

I also finished the Decalog from L. Ron Hubbard. Invasion Earth that summer too. So it wasn't that I didn't like reading... I just didn't like reading shit.

I am not sure why we went from stuff like Alas Babylon one summer to Ethan Frome in the next. Probably some feminist took over the reading assignments.
Really, I blame feminism for the guy who tried to murder those republicans. He probably identified as a male feminist too.

Re: Congressman Steve Scalise (R) shot
the film review in catcher is one of the funniest things i've ever read.The Conservative wrote:If Catcher and the Rye (One of the worst books in American Literature in my opinion) inspired someone to shoot Ronald Reagan, there was more wrong with the person than just a loose screw. The guy needed a frontal lobotomy...KerningChameleon wrote:Also, Catcher in the Rye inspired a dude to shoot Ronald Reagan to impress Jane Fonda, so putting it on the meaningless Banned Book List was obviously the correct choice.
I now submit the way to combat modern day assassinations is to ban Jane Fonda.
