By that logic,
To Kill A Mockingbird and
Catcher in the Rye must be some of the worst books ever written. After all, their authors must not have had any talent what-so-ever since neither of them wrote anything else.
As for
Catch-22: absolutely amazing! I read it for AP US History sophomore year and have since re-read it. It's the kind of humor I love and has a decent story to go along with it. Sure, it gets a little slow at times, but the satire is some of the best I've ever read.
