It's a fun read if you're, like me, not that science literate but wish to be. I'm also reading a bunch of books about the songwriter Jerome Kern because I'm writing a big paper on him for my Musical Theatre as Literature class.
What did you think of Catcher in the Rye? That's always been one of my favorites, as it is with most people who read it when they're around 15 -20
I liked it a lot, although surprisingly not because I could relate to the main character - I think that's the reason most teenagers enjoy it.
In fact I'm not entirely sure why I liked it so much. It's usually pretty easy to describe what you liked in a book but... with Catcher in the Rye I just can't :o
I can see why it's one of your favourites though
