The Perks Of Being A Wallflower

Hello Lovelies!

The perks of being a wallflower is not only a film but a a fantastic book also. The books genre is 'coming of age' and the recommended age is 14. The main character is Charlie. He is starting high school and his best friend from middle school was having trouble at home so killed himself. The book itself is set up as a letter where Charlie is writing to "friend".


Charlie himself has mental problems and gets angry. He sees things and thinks things we wouldn't usually. Like about other peoples lives and if they are happy and if not, why. He thinks a lot and keeps quiet about his thoughts. He meets Sam and Patrick who introduce them to their other friends like Mary Elizabeth and Alice. 


I don't really want to spoil the story for you, because if you haven't read it then I really recommend it. I read the whole book within two days and it usually takes me longer due to studying and other stuff. The book is really inspiring and eye opening and at times sad. None the less, it is a brilliant!
