I didn't read it until college, but I was technically still a teen.

(LOL!) It did lead to some interesting conversations, though I don't think I'd assign the book again.Enbrethilielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03414765854670926854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8352970474940948252.post-38230093786026412012011-07-19T08:27:37.253-07:002011-07-19T08:27:37.253-07:00Yay - another Holden Caufield fan!
