Catcher in the Rye

This post is about The Catcher in the Rye. It is one of the rare best selling books that is not made into a film ( So don't search for a The Catcher in the Rye movie because there would be nothing ). It was not made into a film because the creator did not allow it,  but he did not allow it to be a film because he really hated movies ( WEIRD! ). It is really weird because I never heard of a person that does not like movies, this is the only person I know that hates movies at all ( SUPER WEIRD! ). I did not tell you the writer's name, well, now I am going to tell you his name, it is J. D. Salinger and the J. D. stands for Jerome David.

The Catcher in the Rye is about Holden Caulfield, the main man of the story. He gets expelled from a private school called Pencey Prep ( weird name ) and then comes back to his home in New York where he tries to make someone to listen to him for a few days. Holden is also scared to become an adult ( Holden is only sixteen years old and in four years he is becoming an adult ) but the bad thing is that he can't stop being an adult, he can never stop it. That is why he is really worried because you can't stop being an adult and being an adult is harder than being a teenager or being a child, because, you have to do work and get money and almost everything is complicated ( super complicated ), but the good thing is that you can have children and be proud about it.

The writer hates movies so much that Holden, the main character of this book says, "If there is one thing I hate it is the movies" ( LOL ) that is how much he hates movies. Almost nobody hates movies, like there should be at least one movie one person likes, like I like some movies and you probably like some movies, maybe the writer of the book did not like movies because movies in those days were bad. In the very first page of the novel Holden calls his brother a prostitute. Holden tried throwing a snowball at a white car and then he did not hit it because he says it looked so nice and white. In the book there is no action, ( no guns sorry ). Holden wants to stop time because he does not want to be any older and do complicated stuff and then he thought about the museum and then he said "the best thing in that museum is that everything stayed right were it was".

Salinger fought in World War II and that is long ago. He did not die in the war, he died of something else ( I don't know how he died but I know he did not die in the war, if you know how he died please tell me in the comments ). He died a few years ago ( remember this post was made at 2013 ). A lot of people think the catcher in the rye is a good book but some people think it is a bad book. You might not like it, but maybe you do, I don't know if you like it because there are always different people reading this post. Salinger made some other books, a lot of other books, some of them are long like this one but some are shorter than others and some are longer than others, he made some stories but he did not publish some.

Some people in real life don't want to be an adult, because well everything is hard and you have to work and sometimes, work is hard. Do you know normally the harder the work is  the more money you get but you can't get money without work. Working is sometimes tiring and if it is too hard you will become worried and becoming worried makes you feel really weird and the feeling is really annoying. Everyone doesn't like the feeling and you not only have to work you also have to do other stuff like buy food and stuff and other stuff and if you want to get some food and if you want some food and some other stuff. You need money and if you want money you need a job and everything is complicated, so some people don't want to be an adult. Any way this is the end of my post.
