>>	Anonymous Sun Sep 10 20:39:06 2017 No.10007641 >>10007091 Anything by Dumas, The Count of Monte Cristo especially. >>10007188 These too. >>10007447 You need to be in the right place in your life for Catcher in the Rye, although being on /lit/ makes you fairly likely to be in that place.

>>	Anonymous Sun Sep 10 20:56:19 2017 No.10007700 >>10007620 Yeah, The Worm Ouroboros as well

>>	Anonymous Sun Sep 10 21:11:09 2017 No.10007744 >>10007641 Catcher in the Rye may be easy to read but it has such a minimal plot. May be harder to get into for people just getting into lit.
