I mean Holden from Catcher in the Rye, the book that has been acclaimed, banned, and everything inbetween. He's such a little bitch and complains about everything and basically invented hipsterism

Is he the most dislikable character in literature? If not, who (though it'd be hard to find someone more dislikable than him )

No? He is a beautiful, complex character that grows immensely and is universally relatable to every reader.

Read it for the first time this year ... he irritated me to no end the fact that the concept of the teenager stems from him ...

I HATED him so much

No, Holden is everything. Sucks to be you with your bad opinion

No. Ronald Weasley's tragic ass is.

Glad to see you agree

He's just so damn annoying and hates literally everything for no reason other than he's a hipster of the 50s

Holden Caulfield?

He's such a badass person though

I could sympathize with, if not like him.

Yeah.

And the sad part is, he's "phony" himself.

Holden wasn't that big of a bitch.

Have you read East of Eden? Kate is pure evil, and I love her.

I loved him

I'm not sure I'd feel the same if I read it for the first time at 20 as opposed to 15 though.

That's half the point.

He is a complainer but because of that he reminds me of myself
He is very likeable actually. I find character from Gatsby FAR more obnoxious.

I find Gatsby to be among the MOST likable characters in literature

Gatsby is DEFINITELY one of the most obnoxious!

No he spoke the truth
