Summary:  This is going to be a summary of the last chapters that are left in the book because this is my last post. I am also going to summarize three chapters at a time. In other words I am summarizing three chapters in one. I am going to summarize chapter 17 to chapter to chapter 26. In the first three chapters all that happens is Holden goes to sally’s and then he goes with her to a skating rink and what a surprise he goes to a bar. The name of the bar was the wicker bar. Then he also thinks about Luce at his time in the bar he has not seen her in three years and he has mixed feelings about her. In the next three chapters what happens in a nutshell is. In the first chapter after Luce leaves he stays at the bar and gets very drunk. I think in the next chapter the highlight of that chapter is when he wakes phoebe and she is overjoyed to see him and gets into a big conversation about where he has been and what he has been doing with his life. In the next chapter they talk about why he was failing his classes and all the things that he personally hates about school. Then in the next four paragraphs what happens is. In the next paragraph a highlight is that he calls an old English teacher and tells him that he got kicked out of another school and he lets him stay the night. Then he comes back to phoebes room and asks her for a dance. Then he says he is leaving New York City and she gives him the Christmas money she saved. Then basically what happens in this chapter is that Holden goes to his teacher’s house and they talk about why he got kicked out of school. In the beginning of the next chapter he goes to grand central station and he spends the night sleeping on a park bench. In the last chapter he dances with phoebe at  a museum and then he gives her back the money she gave him. That is all I have to say about this topic.

Quote:  I choose this quote because it really stood out for me and I think it really showed the type of style that the author uses in the book.

“Don't ever tell anybody anything. If you do, you start missing everybody(ch.26 Salinger.”

Reaction:  This is the reaction that I had to the story and how the author used his type of writing style to make the story more real and interesting. The way he tells the story is from first person. That is because he thinks it would make you fell more interested in the story. Also how it would make you feel like you are right their and or if you were right behind him or sitting right next to him. That is all I have to say about this topic.
