Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes

4.0

The book was pretty good! The story was very interesting and I really liked how the writing changes throughout the book depending on how intelligent Charlie is. But I didn’t really get connected to Charlie/Algernon enough that I really got sad at the end when it implied that they both died. Another thing was the romance between Miss Kinnian and Charlie was forced and I didn’t think they had any chemistry. Again it was a good book, but I think it had some flaws.
