It was a cheesy Hannukah romance book but the main character in the book "The Matzah Ball" made so mad at times that I just know I was annoyed at her but to this day I have no idea why exactly. Her vibes were just yucky I guess

I have a love hate with the catcher in the rye mainly because like you said, thats part of the message of the book. On one hand I love that is so perfectly captures teen angst. On the other hand, being an adult and after working with teenagers like him I just see the kids I've worked with and the frustration and sadness I've had before with them lmao
