9th grader is, like, whatever JD Salinger's passing

9th grader Todd Lagina doesn't care that the author of "Catcher in the Rye" died yesterday, he still won't read the book. Todd said, "I hate reading to begin with. And books are so over anyway. I'm not gonna read any of the books assigned just because they were assigned. Why would I want to read some old book just 'cause the dude who wrote it who I know absolutely nothing about died today? Of natural causes. I could see maybe being curious if he was, like, brutally murdered, but Saladger died in his sleep. Bor-ing... I'll just cheat off the Asian kid who sits next to me."
