Being a teenager, it's an especially great time to read books, but also to sort of discover them on their own. I mean, Salinger is kind of this perfect example of, you know, generations of high schoolers read Catcher in the Rye. And I actually came to Catcher in the Rye later in my reading through Salinger. I started with Franny and Zoe, then went to nine stories.

By the time I got to Catcher in the Rye, it actually felt a little juvenile compared to some of the other stories, which are about people who are, you know, older than Holden Caulfield. But like, it's the perfect teenager book. I mean, it's like everybody's classic experience of reading a book when they're teenagers that really turned them on to reading.

It's kind of like Catcher in the Rye is one of those books. And being 14 to 17, 18 is the perfect time to be. You're impressionable. You know, you're just starting to play around with life. Ideas that you might want to try to apply to your life, right? Your curiosity has gone from things that are merely novel to things that are more meaningful. I'm Shane Harris.
