4.5

I watched the movie a couple years ago and I distinctly remember not liking it because I didn't understand it. I'm so glad I decided to give the book a chance because I loved it so much. I think it was so good at capturing the feelings a teenager goes through at the time. although Charlie certainly seemed nicer and more empathetic than most teens. a true wallflower. 
it was slightly triggering for me but I loved it regardless.
