People are always telling us to be ourselves, but they discriminate people who stray from social norms. What's the message here? Are you saying that I can only be myself if i'm "normal"? What is "normal"? Is normalcy based on the majority? What if the majority of the people in the world had brain cancer? Does that make having brain cancer "normal"? And if so, would the healthy people without brain cancer be shunned? Why is being "normal" so important in our society? If people think you are weird, they assume there is something wrong with you. Just because i'm different doesn't mean there is something wrong with me. I don't have issues. I mean jeez, you're the one with brain cancer.

Catcher in the Rye Review

Catcher in the Rye was odd to say the least. It was an easy read due to and insanely simple vocabulary, but was still quite confusing. The ending isn't explained very well. I was told the author probably did this on purpose. One moment Holden is fine, but next thing you know, He is in an asylum?
