CH 12

on the way to the club, Holden strikes up a conversation with the cab driver, and talked about where the ducks go in the winter. from that conversation, they moved on to talk about fish. he finally got to the club and it was packed. he met a girl that new his brother and they talked for awhile, then lied to get away from her.

CH 11

Chaper 11 starts out with holden talking about Jane and how he misses her and how he met her. he talks about her and everything they did in the past. he then went and got his coat and got a cab to go to earnie's. he is a very good piano player, and plays at his club. we are starting to see now that holden is getting to be more depressed and he is saying that too.

CH 10

in chapter 10, holden got washed up and went downstairs to a club. he starts to talk about his sister and how smart she is, and then says how everyone is smart in his family besides himself. he sat down at a table in the club and tried to get liquor, but couldn't because he was underage. then started to dance with a blonde lady, who was a really good dancer. he talked and paid for the girls the whole night. once again we see he is a completely different person when it comes to grils.

CH 9

in chapter 9, holden wants to call someone, but doesn't really have anyone to call. he is in his hotel and looks across the yard and see's some weird things going on. it gets him excited, so he calls up a girl, because he wanted some action, but she said it was too late, but she would come tomorrow. he hung up on her. this kid is starting to be kind of funny, he is a horn dog.

CH 8

in chapter 8, he starts walking to the train station and caught a late train. he has a really nice looking girl sit by him and he finds out it is one of his friends mom. Holden then starts to lie to her and says that her son is a very good kid and all, when he doesn't like him, and also says his name is the name of the janitor at the school. he then tells her that he is leaving Pency because of a brain tumor her has. I don't know why he has to lie all the time but he sure does it a lot and i hope it gets him into trouble pretty soon.

CH 7

Holden talks to Ackley, and then tried to fall asleep on his bed, but he couldn't stop thinking about Jane, his roommates date. he then leaves Ackley's room and ends up leaving the dorms for good. he goes to New York. Holden found a hotel to stay in because he wants his parents to be settled down before he goes home. this kid kind of does whatever he wants and really should be put somewhere with no freedom, like boot camp or something. something that will teach him some respect and manners.

CH 6

In chapter 6, Stradlader got back and read paper, he was angry because the paper was nothing to do with the assignment. Holden tried to fight him then, but gets pinned to the ground and then gets punched in the nose. Stradlater then left, and Holden went into Ackley's room, so he could talk to someone. i really liked that he was punched, but think Stradlater should have done some more danage, because Holden needs it. he needs someone to put him in his place.

CH 5

Holden leaves with some friends and ends up getting in a snowball fight, then they went to catch a movie, but the movie they went to was one many of them already saw. so they went to an arcade place and played games. then they went home and Holden started to work on the paper and ended up writing about a baseball glove, and then talked about his dead brother Allie. What i have read so far, seems that he is very fond of his siblings and they are about the only ones he does say anything nice about.

CH 4

Holden starts this chapter out by going in the bathroom and talking to Stradlater while he is shaving. he knows Stradlater and Ackley don't like each other, so he says they are a like in some ways, like by saying they are both slobs. His roommate then asked Holden to write a paper for him because he wouldn't have enough time to do it. so Holden says yes. Holden then asked who his date is and he ends up knowing who she is and likes her a lot. now we see another side of Holden, when it comes to girls he seems like a whole different person.

Ch 3

Holden has now left Mr. Spencer's house and is now talking about how he lied to get out of there, and also how he lies all the time, to get away from people or out of doing something. he went back to his dorm and started to read a book. then his friend Ackley came in and started to bug him, so Holden started messing around and doing things that annoy his friend. then his roommate came in and got ready for his date. now by chapter 3 i'm kind of getting sick of how he has nothing good to say about anyone and just thinks he is the best ever.

CH 2

in chapter 2 Holden is at his teachers house, Mr Spencer. Mr. Spencer wanted to talk to Holden about being kicked out of school. he told holden how life is a game and you need to follow the rules. they were talking and Holden told Spencer that he hasn't told his parents yet and also he has been kicked out of 4 schools now. then they talked about his old school again. i still think that nothing makes this kid happy and no one is good enough for him, when really the reason he isn't like them is because he doesn't try at anything and is just lazy about work.

CH 1

In chapter one, Holden, the main character, doesn't want to talk about childhood. he has currently got kicked out of the school he is going to because he is failing 4 ou t of the 5 classes. Holden was watching the football game and then had to go meet with a teacher. at the game he sat on the hill, because many people were mad at him because he got a bus lost earlier that day. so far what this kid sounds like, is nothing really makes him happy and everyone is a phobe.
