Las ventajas de ser un marginado by Stephen Chbosky

5.0

dark emotional funny inspiring reflective medium-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: Yes

Loveable characters: Yes

Diverse cast of characters: Complicated

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Possibly one of the best books I'll read in my entire life. This book is perfect at showing us how all the characters are imperfect and have unique experiences, to the point where I actually felt deep sonder. I found Charlie and his thought process to be quite relatable at times, and I really enjoyed the epistolary format of the book. I also liked how it dealt with serious topics because, despite being serious, sometimes they barely got a few pages if it didn't really affect Charlie which, to me, felt interestingly realistic, as sometimes we just brush past or move on from morbid spectacles with quite ease. Overall, I loved this book and would recommend this book to all of my friends
