The Catcher in the Rye pt2

I love this book!!! I am completely taken by it!! Even though it was written back in 1951, it is still very relatable and resembles an adolescent story from nowadays. I am almost half way through and for now the main character, Holden is roaming the lonely streets of New York late at night and getting into messy situations, after having gotten expelled, and escaped before the end of the semester from boarding school.
Throughout this first part of the novel, Holden keeps asking himself and others where the ducks that live in a certain pond of Central Park go in the winter, and I find that important in some weird way.

    1. It cannot be classified as a romantic novel at all, but it is about a teenager so obviously it talks about typical boy/girl relationships, and he does show a special interest in a specific girl that we haven't even met yet!!
