This Would Be Good...

...if "The Catcher in the Rye" ever became a movie, Miles Teller would be the perfect Holden Caulfield.

I've been listening to audiobooks of classics that I read back in junior high and high school. It makes a world of difference depending on who is reading the book and how they play the characters. Plus, re-listening to these books as an adult brings in a whole new perspective.

I think we remember just some incidents from books we read back then. I remember a Ms. Havishem or something sitting in a rocking chair refusing to take off her wedding gown when Pipps got to her place or something.

Might have to re-read Di.ckens' book on that and see why her fiance failed to show up for their wedding.

A friend sent me this book so we could read and discuss it together. Then she got married and we could not go on with our mission.
