So I was chillen in class today and was chewing my gum that had gummy stuff in it. We discussed and I as I was listening to a combination of Alex and Masons conversation and the classes conversation and it was quite interesting. But anyways maybe I should blog about what I need to blog about.
I thought it was really interesting on how Stradlater acted towards Holden after Holden had just done his homework. Instead of telling Holden thank you for doing my homework he instead decided that he would yell at Holden and pick on him even though he was already down. During the last two chapters (6&7) it seems as though the fights between the two boys was rather childish and not necessary. There was a lot of jealousy on Holden's part because I think he partially is looking out for Jane as a friend but yet likes her more than that... This book so far has been so jumpy and I am really excited to see where Holden heads after moving out... But until next time STAY COOL!

I think you are showing a lot of great reflection in your blog! I encourage you to continue to see the book as a classic...it is voted #2 on Time Magazine's all-time greatest books! There has to be something worthwhile in it!
ReplyDeleteHolden does struggle with acting childish, but other times, acting as though he wants to be an adult. Do you think he is mature or immature?
Daaaaang Andrew!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. You could tell that Holden was mostly freaking out because of Jane-- he obviously liked her, but he was having such a hard time expressing that. It was driving me crazy XDD
