Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes
5.0
reflective sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

2025 re-read. I had not touched this book in probably 15 years. Still just as devastating. I bawled my eyes out at the final line all over again. The brilliant rise and crippling fall of Charlie in less than a year was a shot to the heart.
