I read Raise High the Roof Beam Carpenters and Seymour last year, and I knew I had to read Franny and Zooey. I LOVE the Glass family, and this book definitely did not disappoint my high expectations. The way J.D. Salinger is able to make his characters feel real and organic is amazing; I love the stream of consciousness narrative and the character driven "plot". I've never seen anyone else write like this. In fact, it makes me want to write. I'm completely inspired and completely in love; yes, Franny and Zooey is going on my favorites list.
