I enjoy the way that new characters are introduced through the story. Since the entire book is told by Holden himself we only get to see what he thinks of people. Even though he will say something bad about a person he always treats them differently then you would expect. He is a lot of talk and no action most of the time. Holden goes on a date with Sally Hayes and describes as a big phony. He takes her to a pla with the Lunts. Having said this, at one point during their date he tells her he loves her and wants to run away and get married. The most interesting thing is that he actually meant it at the time. Also, when Holden meets up with Luce, a guy he knew from a passed school, their conversation is very odd. Luce spends most of the conversation telling olden to change the subject or he was leaving. Holden describes Luce to be intellectual, but he mostly seems self-centered and rude.
