emotional sad medium-paced

• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

a really beautiful book that pop culture deeply misunderstood. especially if you read charlie as autistic. i really love the earnest, in betweenness, where youre not doing that bad but also not doing well. youre just trying. it is sadly a product of its time, the 90s heyday of teen drama ala heathers. i do think its very beautifully written, i enjoyed it a lot because i found charlie's narrative voice to be oddly soothing. he's truly a teenager fully coming into himself. i think coming of age is a silly phrase but i think this novel captures it perfectly.
