Rating of The Catcher in the Rye.


The Catcher in the Rye is a good book for stronger readers. I say this because the way the author writes everything and the way the whole story is laid out is difficult to understand. This book is really well written and the story behind it about the author is very interesting. The way the book is written it does very well at describing things, maybe a little too well. On one page Holden describes one thing for a whole page. If you are into that then this will be a very good read. On a scale of 1-10 of how difficult a read this is I give it a 7. I give it a 7 because it was a book for better readers, some parts were hard to understand and confusing. I rate this book on scale of 1-5 stars I give it a 3.5, I give it this because i thought the book was really well written, although I did think there were some unnecessary chapters. Once you read The Catcher in the Rye, it takes a while to realize there is so much more about it than the words written on the pages. Remember, this is all my opinion and I hope no one thinks i'm phony, just saying my thoughts about the book!
