Wow , contrary to the other review all ready posted about this book, I thought it was excellent. I picked it because my teacher gave us a list of books to choose from and she told us a little bit about each one of them. Her description of the book made me want to read it and it turned out that it was definitly worth my time. The Perks of Being A Wallflower is a classic type novel about a boy in high school. His letters offer a unique perspective into hios world. The book starts off with Charlie nervous about his first day of high school. Through his experiences, you learn that he is just an average kids going through stuff a normal high schoolers go through. Through his eyes you see some of his most amazing experiences and his most terrifying. This leads you through the world of drugs, sex, first kisses, and those long drives when "in that moment, I swear we were infinite." Just overall great book!
