J. D. Salinger - Catcher in the Rye
When I was a twelve year old in grade 6, I thought it would be a good idea to read my big sister's copy of this book, and see what all the fuss was about. This book seemed to be notorious and controversial.
I had never read anything like it. It was absolutely riveting and turned me into a lifelong J. D. Salinger fan. A lot of people didn't seem to like the Glass family saga that Salinger got into after Catcher in the Rye, but I loved it, particularly the book Franny and Zooey.
I am intrigued by what Salinger books his son Matthew found in his father's safe and what will be published soon. I would be happy to have more books in the Glass family saga.
