I struggled a bit settling in to this novel because I was trying to hard to figure it out. The first twenty pages or so were a bit confusing. The Perks of Being a Wallflower is one of those books that I’ve been hearing about for years, but never actually got around to reading. Constantly second-guessing himself and filled with confusion and anxiety, Charlie observes the world around him with a perspective vastly different from the average teenage boy. His letters detail important milestones such as first dates, making friends, doing drugs, and attending screenings of the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
In a series of letters, sixteen year old “wallflower” Charlie writes about the slow, stumbling, and sometimes scary transition from adolescence to adulthood.
