"When I'm drunk, I'm a madman"....
Hate to break it to you Holden, but your a madman when your sober, too. #TCITR20

[Lauren Schwartz @_laurenschwartz]

Every time Holden gives an age for someone, it's always much older than what it actually is. He even does this for himself!

[Lauren Schwartz @_laurenschwartz]

It seems like Holden's parents are just sending him off to any school they can find. The Antolinis are definitely parental figures for him

[Lauren Schwartz @_laurenschwartz]

I feel like Holden's trying so hard to have a good relationship with Phoebe because he can't have one with Allie #TCITR25

The museum of natural history that Holden almost goes to revisit #TCITR16

Holden always asks taxi drivers where ducks go in the winter, but he never asks anyone else!! #TCITR12

wow times have changed since this book has been written... kids don't offer random adults cigarettes on trains in 2015 #TCITR8

The amount of times people say "chrissake" in this book is equal to the amount of times shindle says "dammit" #TCITR9

The overall mission of Pency prep is very similar to the mission of Camp Green Lake from "Holes" #TCITR1

"She was again alone"
Until she starts caring for others rather than just herself, she'll always be alone

[Lauren Schwartz @_laurenschwartz]

"How glad she was to see her children!" That was a big change; she didn't even want to take care of them before #TheAwake32

As a child, maybe Edna got annoyed with her stern father's rules and that's why she doesn't want to take care of her kids #TheAwake24

[Lauren Schwartz @_laurenschwartz]

What are Edna's emotions while reading the letter? The line about the song hints at her feelings #TheAwake21

Despondent (adj)- in low spirits from loss of hope or courage #TheAwake21
