Chapters 21-26 Response:

I think that this chapter sort of leaves to you hanging. With the way the book is written im not sure is a different ending would have been better though. I think it would be neat to see where Holden ends up in life. I think at the end of the chapters Holden feels that he was close to all those people he was just to afraid to say that he was for fear of losing them like he lost Allie.
