Which of the following books should I choose and why?

I recommend "Snow Falling on Cedars," "The Catcher in the Rye," and "Slaughterhouse Five." I've read "Snow Falling on Cedars" (good movie too) and "The Catcher in the Rye" is in my top three novels all time! "Slaughterhouse Five" is on my must-read list, as well. You probably can't go wrong with any of these three!
