The two books, " Catcher in the Rye"ÃÂ and, " Rule of the bone,"ÃÂ do have some parallels.
Mostly, the main theme of the stories , a young, confused, boy trying to find himself and attempting to figure out what they want out of life and what life wants out of them. That is pretty much where the similarities ended for me.

Now Chappie, a.k.a. Bone, was a lower class kid, a public school drop- out, a drug dealing burn out, not very intelligent, when he put out the loner persona he deep down always needed to be around people.
