I love just about all C.S. Lewis stuff except Chronicles of Narnia. And I love just about all J.D. Salinger books except Catcher in the Rye. Well, I like Narnia and Catcher just fine, I just think they don't sparkle like the rest.

I found Holden Caufield to be a spoiled, insufferable, entitled brat, but that's probably because i went to school with guys just like him and they were all spoiled, insufferable, entitled brats.
Yeah, that makes sense, and I think a lot of people do see him that way. I just really like how he's pissed off about everything and how everyone is a phony, because I totally feel that way sometimes. And I think my inner monologue is a lot like his sometimes.
