Au lycée où il vient de rentrer on trouve Charlie bizarre. Trop sensible, pas "raccord". Pour son prof de lettres, c'est un prodige ; pour les autres, juste un freak. En attendant, il reste en marge - jusqu'au jour où deux étudiants, Patrick et la jolie Sam, le prennent sous leur aile. La musique, les filles, la fête: c'est tout un mode que Charlie découvre...

The Perks of Being a Wallflower

3 stars

Continuing my journey through the land of banned books. This book is written as a series of letters, and is one-sided correspondence: we only see the letters written by Charlie, the protagonist. This format is unusual and I found it to be engaging. It also means that in addition to describing the action, Charlie is constantly reflecting on it as well, talking not just about the events themselves but also what he perceives as their meaning. Charlie seemed at times to be something of an empty vessel, constantly buffeted by the stronger personalities around him. But the author delivers on why that might be the case.

Maravilloso

5 stars

La peli me encantaba, pero el libro es maravilloso. Es divertido, la voz narradora está ejecutada magistralmente, tiene mucho ritmo... De lo mejor que he leído en literatura sobre adolescentes.

Reccomended to me by a Friend.

5 stars

This was just so beautiful. Perfectly managed to capture what it’s like to be a teenager. Those stunning nights where you’re surrounded by friends, just laughing and eating and drinking with the stars above you and the ground below you. Perhaps it’s because of how similar all my friends are to those in this book or perhaps it’s due to the shared connection all teenagers have that was explored in this book but whatever it was, The Perks of Being a Wallflower really connected with me. I’m sure I will read this again sometime but for now, Perks gets a 5* rating from me.

Managed to read it without getting spoiled at all (not that there are many spoilers you can have for the book).

and the remaining thing to need to know about this book? i'm buying it. i will read it over and over.
