Or, that just might be a book you need to read at a particular age to truly enjoy. I am not sure.

Notes:
Franny:
I find it funny that he is waiting for his girlfriend, who hates all poets but Sappho. Bro, you gonna lose her to a butch woman.
Lovelovelove, ps. my father ain’t dying, it’s all good. The priorities are right.
Imagine nerd emoji here. Personally I think that the author should not have put in the whole letter, seeing that the chapter did not have time to read it fully.
Thinking, that everyone else must “surely find you at the right place with the right girl” is very gay.
Oh, Lane is one of those people, who just shuts you up when you say something they don’t like.
Empty ladie’s room? I didn’t know this was a fantasy.
Zooey:
The description of Zooey seems to be written as if by his lover.
I have a feeling that the children of the family Glass could have each gotten a story about them.
Oh my god, Mrs Glass.
Mrs. Glass be completely unable to judge herself while talking about her husband.
I am kinda uncomfortable about how much we concentrate on the fact, that Franny still looks good when she is in a middle of a breakdown.
I get why Zooey is being like this about the way Franny sees Jesus and how she is very priviledged to choose a place where she wants to have a breakdown, but he is kinda being abusive.
Their family is so broken.
