When the teacher told us that we were going to read this book, I knew it was going to be BORING. This is a stupid book, that talks about a "phony" guy.he only people that liked this novel were killers, rapists, and other unkind people. I Think this book gives you feelings of death and insecurity. This guy is so stupid, because he thought his teacher was gay, when he only wanted to pretend he was his son. Also when he fought with Stradlater-his roommate-, if he was stronger, and he knew he was going to kick his butt, why did he fight with him?. I think that he is a spoiled child, because he called a prostitute and then he only talk with her. In a few words, this is a book without sense for me or for everyone that is a normal person.
