A review by xanderrabbit
The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky

5.0

this fuck’t me up real good. THE SENSITIVITY....... i understand why this is a classic. the gays are tragic but i am willing to accept this.

ALAS, THE ENDING. OMG. I Could Not Believe It Dot Jpeg. this is an example of a twist that once it is revealed, the reader can go back and trace the foreshadowing. it is one of my biggest pet peeves when there is a twist for the sake of a twist.

i’m at a loss for words, tbh. love how personal this felt... i was the one receiving these letters. i felt the pain of the person getting each letter in the mail and the panic of not being able to do anything to help this Poor Lost Sixteen Year Old.

this was beautifully written and will stick with me.

4.5 leaning far towards a 5.
