In the beggining of the first time I read this (I'm in the 5th right now lol), I would've given it 1 star. Thought it was so negative, cynical, skeptical, whatever you may want to call it. The thing is when I finished it, I was already agreeing with a lot when it came to Holden's point of view on life. And now I'm pretty sure there's more of Holden in me than of who I was before I stumbled upon it. Besides that, it's the only book that litterally has me laughing out loud every time. One of my favorites, definitely.
