Review: The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
Hi readers:
August 25, 1991
Dear friend,
I am writing to you because
she said you listen and understand
and didn't try to sleep
with that person at that party even though
you could have. Please
don't try to figure out who she is because
then you might figure out
who I am, and I really don't want you to
do that. I will call people
by different names or generic names
because I don't want you to
find me. I didn't enclose a return
address for the same
reason. I mean nothing bad by this. Honest.
I just need to know that
someone out there listens and
understands and doesn't try
to sleep with people even if they
could have. I need to know
that these people exist.
I think you of all people
would understand that because I think
you of all people are alive
and appreciate what that means. At
least I hope you do because
other people look to you for strength
and friendship and it's
that simple.

CRITICISM:
This book is my favorite, I read it last year and I had re-read it once, and every time I am like;
This book is freaking awesome! Maybe I like this book so much because you can relate with it so easily. I thought that I was like Charlie, excepting the fact I do have friends. The way he described everything was excellent. This book will make you laugh and think about things in life or in problems that you have as a teenager.
The book is written like letters, so an example:

My friend, everything is going out of my hands.
Problems come in to my life and never come out.
That is how Stephen decided to wrote the book. When you finish this book, it may get you to read more books or to write. In my life that book means a lot, not just because it gave me the impulse to write this blog, it has meaning because it made me realize I am a WALLFLOWER
I
love this book and the movie to, but of course I love more the book
Hope
you read it, and hope you like it too.
I
just wanted to add something, this book is for
