"The Bell Jar" by Sylvia Plath is another good one, not as good as Catcher though.

Bump.

I'm reading this right now, and it's excellent. Check it out if you like stuff that doesn't suck. *ahemdanbrownahem*

I read it when I was about 15 and didn't quite get it. Perhaps now that I'm older and more mature it would be worth it to pull it off the shelf and reread it.

A Separate Peace, by John Knowles
Catch-22, by Joseph Heller
Journey to the End of the Night, by Celine

All are good coming of age, loss of innnocence books.

Read Franny & Zooey. It's the better Salinger work IMO.
