a good book


"What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it." (Holden Caulfield - "Catcher in the Rye" by J.D. Salinger)

ha ha ha, and that's exactly how I felt when reading Catcher in the Rye, I even wrote that in my review. Great Holden, I miss him :)

Are you reading it?

yes, i suddenly greatly missed caulfield. maybe just a couple of extracts for today. it's even more interesting because salinger himself was struggeling with unwanted attention...
