When I was 17 years old, someone who was very special to me for a long time loaned me a book called "Catcher in the Rye." I was going through the worst year of my entire life, mentally and emotionally, and she handed me the book, and told me that the last line of the book reminded her of me. She thought it would really resonate with me and help me

Yes. I totally understand the impact. RIP for sure.

also loved Salinger. I didn't get it at all when I first read the book, which was for school.

When I went back and re-read it around 20, I got it.
