Chapters 16-20 Response:

I think Holden feels extremely lonely. He is trying to make plans with anyone and everyone. He may not have liked the person to much but he would call them to hang out for awhile. He even decides that he is going to sneak into his house to talk to Phoebe in the middle of the night. I think that Holden feels like a nobody. He seems to be looking for a friend but every time something goes wrong and he is left sitting there alone.
