lines lines lines

Hi friends,

One of my favorite lines is found in chapter 6 (page 41 in the small book) when Holden is explaining the night that he and Stradlater got into a fight.  
The line is "I did it to annoy Stradlater.  It drove him crazy when you broke any rules.  He never smoked in the dorm.  It was only me."  

I really like this line because it reminds of what siblings do to each other.  Holden does this specifically just to irritate Stradlater and it reminds of me of the relationship that I have with my brother.  A lot of the dialogue in this book makes it very relatable to teenage life and just this comment in general really made it that more believable.
