I read Franny & Zooey, liked it much more than Catcher. Sallinger is a total a-hole, however.

I never read that. I loved to read (still do, of course) and hated being told what to read when I was in school. The only book I was assigned that I actually enjoyed was "The Portrait of Dorian Gray". Now that was a novel.

I've read that as well as "Catcher" but my favorite by far is "Raise High the Roofbeam Carpenters."

It really catches the flavor of a family get together.
