Summary
Charlie is a freshman. And while he's not the biggest geek in the
school, he is by no means popular. Shy, introspective, intelligent
beyond his years yet socially awkward, he is a wallflower, caught
between trying to live his life and trying to run from it. Charlie is
attempting to navigate his way through uncharted territory: the world of
first dates and mixed tapes, family dramas and new friends; the world
of sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when all one requires
is that perfect song on that perfect drive to feel infinite. But Charlie
can't stay on the sideline forever. Standing on the fringes of life
offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see what it looks
like from the dance floor.
The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a
deeply affecting coming-of-age story that will spirit you back to those
wild and poignant roller-coaster days known as growing up.

"Dear friend,
I am writing to you because she said you listen and understand and didn't try to sleep that person at that party even though you could have."
Review
If you read this story you will laugh, cry and keep reading on. It is
not to be missed. Charlie will show you that high school can be enjoyed
if you have the right friends and becoming a teenager isn't as scary as
you think, even though it seems that way.This story has stayed with me for a long while and I am sure if you read it, you will remember it forever.
