i think this perfectly encapsulates the feeling of being fifteen. especially with things like discovering famous pieces of media and connecting to them in your own way (landslide by fleetwood mac or to kill a mockingbird)

are you kidding me, i don’t even know what else to say

Още когато гледах филма знаех, че тази книга бързо ще се превърне в една от любимите ми, но със сигурност не очаквах да ме докосне по толкова много начини. I didn't expect to feel so... empty(?) after finishing it.. така сякаш авторът взе частица от мен и я затвори между страниците на "the perks of being a wallflower" завинаги.

Не знам какво друго да кажа освен че обичам тази книга, обичам всеки един герой и всяка част от историята.

Чувствам толкова много, но мога да напиша толкова малко. Защото тази книга не може да бъде описана, тя трябва да бъде почувствана. Чак тогава човек ще разбере защо речникът ми си събра багажа и си тръгна в най-важния момент.

A solid 5/5. I recommend for sure!

To say this book was an emotional roller coaster would be a disservice. From start to finish the book constantly kept me on my toes, almost feeling like every 5 pages made me feel a different intense feeling. I cried, I laughed and I smiled, which for me is the sign of a truly incredible book. The diary style and the fast pace nature that Chbosky writes the book, ensures that even when the plot isn’t thrilling, it still keeps the reader engaged. The book is narrated by the main character, Charlie, a teenage boy who’s exploring this new realm of social life for the first time, from drinks and drugs to sex, Charlie truly does experience majority of his first in this book. A coming of age story with undertones of grief and abuse, makes the story relatable for many young people, even if that relation isn’t to the struggles the main character goes through mentally, they can certainly relate to the social awkwardness of the social situations he explores. The book excellently portrays the effects of mental health and the damage it can do to people, it also shows clearly that if you talk and seek help, you can be helped. The first book that I have given 5 stars since I have started rating books and for good reason, as someone who has autism, I thought that Chbosky’s portrayal of the autistic Charlie was very accurate and was something I could relate to. The issues of homophobia, sexual assault and abuse are central to the book, which each character struggling with one of the things I named. I think Chbomsky, navigates these issues with skill, showing the effects of each equally. Similarly to The Alchemist but for a completely different reason, I think this book is an essential read for young teens and young adults, as no matter who you are, you will relate to something in this book.
