my Summary, Catcher rye

Catcher rye, 1+2, pages 1-13

intro, this book is awful quality and boring dialog so to save you time i summarised so you can know, who talked and the bit that happened, instead of reading thousands of low quality words and grossness.

Summary: in Pennsylvania, Holden got expelled from school, for "failing four of his five subjects." he only passed English class. On the Saturday before Christmas, he lost the fencing team’s equipment on the subway, so their trip for the competition got ruined.

Holden started going towards a teacher's home, but when he tried to run, he stopd to breathe because he was a smoker. 2: the teacher was ill. so Holden lengthily conversed with him until Holden interrupted and went to his dorm room.

3=14-30. Holden sat reading, and was wearing his new red hunting hat, with a long brim and earflaps. Ackley, who often acted gross, entered his room and started asking annoying questions. later, Holden’s handsome and popular roommate, named s', entered, so ugly Ackley left. 

4 while s' shaved, they conversed about stuff. Holden judged that Ackley is an obvious slob, but s' is a “secret slob.” h' knew that s' was one of the few "sexually experienced" boys. s's date waited until finally they left together. Holden felt jealous that this Jane was with s'. Ackley returned again and was grossly squeezing pimples.

5 Holden ate steak for dinner and threw snowballs. He, a pal and gross Ackley traveled and ate burgers, played pinball and returned to dorm. there Ackley sat on Holden’s bed and resumed squeezing pimples. h started doing school work for his partner. he wrote about a guy who copied poems on a baseball glove, but that differed from the assignment. h described his younger brother "incredibly nice, innocent and the most intelligent member of his family" he heard Ackley snoring in the other room. 

6 Stradlater=s entered their room and read the work and complained it was the wrong topic. h angrily tore the work and smoked. Holden asked s about his date with Jane but s won't tell so h fought him until losing. H was insulting S until s punched Holden's nose. Holden insulted him some more until S exited. Holden went to Ackley’s room. 

7 Holden lay in bed in a's room. He worried about jane but slept and awoke. they talked until h left and packed. he don his hunting hat, and started crying. in the corridor he yelled probably waking people.

8 Holden walked to the train station. he rode until a stop, where a lady sat by him. She is his classmates ma. he lied to praise him to her.

9 at the train station in n.y.c. Holden decided not to phone any of the people he knew. Holden rode a cab to a Hotel. In his room, he saw thru lighted windows: he saw surprising stuff. he spoke on the phone but did not arrange any meeting.
