chapter 14

holden stayed up for a little while after sunny left and then he heard a knock on his door. when he opened it he came to find that is was sunny and the guy from the elevator wanting more money. when holden refuses the guy pins holden while sunny takes the money from his pocket. then holden gets hit in the stomach and they leave.

i think that if it was that late holden shouldn't have ever opened the door in the first place.

chapter 13

this is the chapter when he hires a prostitute and they head up to the room. when they get there he just wants to talk and not do anything else. sunny doesn't like this and says that she was woke up to do this. she threatened holden that she would leave if thay didnt so anything so he paid he the five bucks and she left.

i think if he wanted someone to talk to he should have called a friend that he knew would listen, not hire a prostitute.

chapter 12

he is at the club listening to ernie in this chapter. he wasn't happy when he got a bad table and then ernie was a bad singer. he ran into his brothers ex girlfriend and decieded to leave so that he wouldn't have to sit with her.

he seems to be doing alright right now with his life. he just needs to take it easy to keep it that way.

chapter 11

in this chapter he talks about how he was in the hotel lobby with jane. He talked about how he and her got very close but weren't physical. he then brings up the time when they were by the pool and he dad came home and upset her.

i think this was a very interesting chapter and it kept you reading.

Chapter 10

in this chapter holden goes down to the lavender room and thinks about calling his sister again. he descibes he for a while and explains how she is a red head and is very polite. later in the night while he is still down there, he dances with 3 women who know he is younger but stay around him for a while until they leave him.

--i think its good for holden to go out and have fun because he has been through alot of rough stuff the last while.

chapter 9

holden is trying to think of someone to call but he cant. he takes a cab to his new room and then tries to make plans with some people but doesnt know who to call. finally he calls faith a girl one of hiis friend found at a party. and she turns him down but says she will meet tomorrow but he doesnt like that idea and hangs up on her.

--he isnt starting to make friends in a very good way at this new place.

chapter 8

this chapter not much happened.. holden was headed to the train when he ran into his classmates mother and he talked about him for a while. he told the mother that her son was very popular

--i dont understand how this section fits into the story right now

chapter 7

holden talks with ackley alot before they get annoyed with each other and finally holden decieded to leave early for new york. as he leaves he yells see ya later morons even though he had just been crying

--holden gets in to many fights and he should maybe try to get along with others better where ever he goes.

chapter 6

in this chapter stradlater comes back from his date and is unpleased with the paper holden wrote. they end up getting in a fight and holden ends up iwth a bloody nose. later holden goes up to ackleys room

--stradlater has no respect for what holden did for him and he needs a attitude adjustment

chapter 5

at the begginning of this chapter the 3 boys go out for a movie but end up just eating a messing around. after they head back to the room holden begins writing the paper for stradlater. he cant think of anything to write about so instead he just writes about a glove his brother had. his brother had died 2 years ago and was very important to holden

--i think the part about his brother is important because it shows a new attitude toward the character.

chapter 4

holden is talking to stradlater in this chapter. they start of talking about ackley and thier hygein habits and changes to a date stradlater has. It is with a girl named jane that he carelessly calls jean. Holden has feelings for jane but he cannot do anything about them. at the end they are in holdens room and ackley is showing bad hygein again.

-- holden should try to get stradlater to change so that jane doesnt get hope because holden really cares about her.

chapter 3

this whole chapter is about how holden is trying to read and ackley comes in and distracts him. ackley is a dirty boy with bad hygiene and golden doesnt like him very much

-- ackley just seems like he needs a good friend to help him along

chapter 2

in this chapter holden is talking to spencer. spencer pretty much tells him that he has messed up and he needs to start pulling it all together. he tells him in a way that he is serious bout it but he still cares.

--i think spencer is right and that holden just needs to take is advice

chapter 1

in the first chapter he talks about current things like his schooling and how he is being kicked out of his school. He is the manager for the fencing team and he lost there equiptment and the team had to come home early. at the end of the chapet he is at his teachers house to say goodbye

my responce-- his has a tough life that he cant handle right now
