I will no longer re-read The Catcher in the Rye for fear of losing the idea I've loved of it. I read it when I was in the angst-y stage of my life and NOW I'm in a much happier Idontgiveafuckabouteverything phase so I know that I will no longer connect with my beloved Holden once I reread it.
So pardon me for staying in my tiny fishbowl idea of what a brilliant novel The Catcher in the Rye was. I'd much rather stay here than hate something I once loved.
