What it tells you
Stella's latest drop for Carrie is a birdhouse, and the sticky note on the cover ends in LITERALLY. The mailbox was apparently too obvious.

The book
The Catcher in the Rye
J. D. Salinger · 1951 · novel
Salinger published it in 1951, and Holden Caulfield is sixteen. Stella picked the book about a kid who can't stand anyone pretending and left it for a girl who has spent her life being told what to pretend. A novel English teachers assign, delivered like contraband.
