Chapter 10


Holden feels lonely still so he goes downstairs to the Lavender Room, a sort of night club in the hotel. While getting ready to leave his room, Holden talks about his sister Phoebe, calling her intelligent and giving her a great definition of her character. But her one flaw is that she gets too worked up sometimes. Holden tries to get a cocktail but they won't let him order one so he just gets a coke. There are three girls sitting close to him visiting from Washington (state) and he asks them all to dance. The blonde one was the best dancer, but they all seem distracted. They want to see celebrities and get annoyed with him, almost as much as he gets annoyed with them. He tricks them by saying that he just saw Gary Cooper. They fell for it, and he bought their drinks and left.

Response- It got almost annoying when Holden kept talking about how good the blonde dancer was... but you gotta love him anyway. : )
