What books are similar to Catcher in the Rye in terms of writing style? It doesn’t have to necessarily have a similar plot or protagonist because I like the way it’s written, but Holden is a pretty huge fag throughout the book.

Salinger is GOAT so you won’t really find much. Rebecca Curtis short stories are the closest I’ve found. Cherry by Nico Walker is a pale imitation but still a fun read.

Salinger's other stuff isn't that close to Catcher in the Rye's style.

Botchan by Natsume Soseki might be what you're after

Salinger is WOAT.

Dunno, OP. You'll be better off trying to read less juvenile literature than basking in it like some depressed 14 year old.
