holy shit!!! i cried probably every 20 pages. i’ve seen the movie and finally decided to read- boy, was that a great decision. it was inspiring in a not-corny way, and even at times when it was corny, i didn’t mind it. this book was so difficult to put down. it’s definitely in my top three now.

Just absolutely beautiful. Probably my favourite book I have ever read, although I say that about most the books I read, but I really do think this will be a book I will re-read many times and will continue to love because of how much depth the author is able to give the characters in so few words. 

I finished it in less than two days, would have happily done it in one, but was doing school work. 

I see myself in Charlie so much it’s a little scary if I’m completely honest. The book describes near perfectly the experiences of a person who observes rather than interacts; Charlie is a great character who is representation for all of us who never quite understood who we are or what we are meant to do.

Favourite book ever. Charlie is so relatable i am him and he is me like seriously i was suffocating and drowning in tears at the end. so much better than the movie as it goes into depth and yoh can see into his mind. the first book that i read after dealing with 5 years of life and shit so glad it was actually decent
