"The Catcher In The Rye" by J. D. Salinger

"The Catcher In The Rye", a novel by J. D. Salinger caught my attention because of the interesting themes represented throughout the book. One of them was growing up and the painfulness of it. The novel revolves around a young man, Holden Caulfield, and as we emerge ourselves further into the novel, we learn how the young character grows and matures. The protagonists main goal is to resist the process of being more mature as he fears change and complexity.

I recommend this novel to anyone who is interested in the darker motifs and themes in a book such as loneliness, deception, intimacy or even just relationships between individuals.
