Read Read Read

For a long time, I have been looking for a novel that inspires and provokes thought and introspection. The Perks of Being a Wallflower does exactly this. Written in a witty epistolary style, antagonist Charlie chronicles his life in a series of unique, hilarious but sometimes heartbreaking letters. Although to whom he is writing remains unknown, Charlie's honesty, blunt observations and deep transparency reveal a fantastic insight into relationships and the tribulations of growing up.
