Holden's personality

I think that Holden has an extremely weird personality. At the start of the story it almost seemed as if he was very to himself and didn't like to be around other people. As the story continued, he seemed to lie a lot about who he was. For example, on the train when he met his friend's mom he started telling her a bunch of lies for his own amusement. I think this shows that he is ashamed and self-conscious about who he is. I also don't think he can accept the fact that he got kicked out of his recent school and he is slightly depressed about they way he presents himself as a person.
