Catcher in the Rye: Part 4

I'm running low on text to text connections. I can only pray that I have enough to last me these final few days. Very little has happened, and whatever has happened is inconsequential.

• Holden met with Sally and discussed running away
• He saw a "heart wrenching" story
• He met up with a guy named Luce and got smashed
• He snuck into his house and talked with his sister.

Alright so the thing that appeared as a common theme in this section and in many other books is sibling love. This was going to be the part where I listed a ton of books about sibling love, but when I googled it, half the articles were about twincest. So I'm just going to give one example, Hunger Games. Though most of that book is about either violence or teen love, it always relates back to how Katniss is doing this for her sister in the end. It's a theme that stays with each book in the series. The love Katniss feels for Prim is similar to the love Holden feels for Phoebe, or even Allie... 

In this section I didn't relate with Holden as much as I did with Sally. Mostly because I have a friend who has tried to convince me to run away as well, and in the situation I had to be the voice of reason, just like Sally. 

One more section to go and only a day to do it. I only hope I can make it to the end of this treacherous journey.
