Catcher in the Rye

Author: J.D.Salinger
Genre: Fiction

Did you know that this book had quite a controversial launch? It had been banned and disliked for many years because it was considered corny by many. And today its a considered a masterpiece!

It is a rebellious account of a guy named Holden who is thrown out of his latest school and is just own his way to his house to confront his parents. Thats precisely how long this book is! Yet it covers his insecurities, his teenage angst, his dislike of anything that is phony and his 'sick' state as he likes to call it. The book ends on a weird note too with no happy or sad ending. Its abrupt and thats exactly what is its USP.

Its a different book altogether and I am glad to have read it. The book definitely deserves the 'masterpiece' tag that it has got!!!!

A Time to Die

Writer: Wilbur smith
Genre: Fiction

One of the books in the second sequence Courtney series. The story is about Sean Courtney Jnr. and Claudia. Type the name of the book and you will get the details. I mean I didnt like it , so in no mood to review it. It got boring with time and I have an unspoken rule of never ever leaving a book halfway, only that made me finish it.

Although the courtney series it didnt have the adventure spirit that could captivate me. But no issues, it wont stop me from lapping his other books. I Plan to finish every courtney book written by Smith :D
